January 30th is the 30th day of the year. There are 336 days remaining until the end of the year.

A Flood Warning is still in effect in the region, put in place by both the Lower Thames Valley Conservation Authority and the St. Clair Region Conservation Authority.

Waterways look to have leveled off, but the warning has not been lifted.

You are reminded to stay away from waterways and flooded areas due to dangerous conditions, slippery banks, and cold, fast moving water. This advisory is in effect until Thursday.

118 new emojis have been revealed, which will be coming to your phones sometime this spring. The additions include a phoenix, a lime and a brown mushroom and a broken chain.

There’s also two new “smile” emojis: One that’s shaking its head from side-to-side, and another that’s shaking its head up-and-down.

The rest are just additional versions of the people walking, running, kneeling, sitting in wheelchairs and walking with canes.

These allow them to face the opposite direction, while also supporting all three emoji gender options, as well as the five skin tones.

Today is the day that McDonald’s brings back the McRib.

The McRib was last seen in a Canadian McDonald’s in 2014, but ever since its departure, many have been begging to bring back.

The McRib consists of boneless pork dipped in a tangy BBQ sauce. It’s topped with onions and pickles and served on a toasted homestyle bun.

Fun fact for those that didn’t know — the meat in the McRib was invented by a professor at the University of Nebraska in 1972 when they worked on a process to make restructured meats. It’s basically “small pieces of meat together in different shapes using salt and mechanical action.”

FanDuel Canada is now offering odds on whether or not Travis Kelce will propose to Taylor Swift after the Super Bowl.

As of last night, the odds had the yes option at +1120, with the no option -3500.

That would give Kelce proposing to Swift implied odds of about an 8% chance of happening, with about 92% of it not.
