Five Things You Need To Know For Thursday, December 10th, 2020!
1. The sun is waking up! Be on the lookout tonight as there is a LOW chance to see the northern lights here in NC but an even better chance the farther north you go. The reason why is because the sun is currently coming out of its "solar minimum" where solar activity is low.
2. Dolly Parton is a national treasure because she admits to being up at 3 a.m. cooking breakfast....in heels! Parton said "I’m little. I’m short. And I have to wear heels in order to reach my cabinets. But I always enjoy wearing the shoes too... I just feel more like me. I have to always stay ready—street ready, I always say."
3. On this date in 1927, The Grand Ole Opry premiered on the radio.
4. HOLD ON TO YOUR COOKIES! Pepperidge Farm says they are experiencing a COOKIE SHORTAGE due to the Rona and that not as many people are working to meet the demand!
