It's almost time for the 99th Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade to hit the streets of midtown Manhattan.

Despite chilly temperatures and dicey wind conditions, the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade went off without a hitch Thursday to celebrate the holiday. City law prevents Macy’s from flying the parade’s trademark balloons if sustained winds top 23 mph and gusts exceed 35 mph, but the gusts stuck between 25 and 30 mph for this year’s celebration.

A woman was arrested after police say she assaulted a 71-year-old man unprovoked inside Macy's Herald Square in Manhattan.

The Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade kicked off Thursday morning in New York City. But despite wind gusts between 25 mph and 30 mph, the parade’s beloved balloons are flying. New balloons depicting Buzz Lightyear and Pac-Man took to the skies. Floats featuring Labubu and Lego graced Manhattan’s streets.
