All right, let's go. It's Thursday, December 12th, 24, 12, 24. This is First Thing with Kevin

Mano. Real quick look at all the top headlines as you start your day, so you feel like you know

what's going on in the world, and the show starts right now. And we always start with the top

story. We've got a little break here today from Luigi Mangione News.

We'll talk about weather.

A large portion of the East Coast got hit with severe weather yesterday into last night, even this morning.

It's a storm system spanning nearly 2,000 miles.

That's big.

Parts of the northeast in New England have seen the most rain.

In some areas,

this isn't that bad. They've been dealing with drought conditions, but for other areas like

parts of New Hampshire and Maine, it's leading to flooding. Millions of people were under flood

watches yesterday. It's been knocking down trees and power lines, delaying some flights.

It's not totally clear just yet how much damage this thing is causing, but it will

certainly be disruptive as the day goes on.

All right, okay. On to sports, first Jason Kelsey's phone smashing investigation is closed,

and he's not going to face any charges. You remember last month when that guy at Penn State was

taunting him and Jason smashed his phone?

Well, I guess nobody ever even came forward with a complaint.

That guy never pressed charges or anything, so it's over.

In other football news, it's California versus California tonight for Thursday night football.

The San Francisco 49ers will host the L.A. Rams.
