Early Wednesday, 42-year-old Army veteran Shamsud-Din Bahar Jabbar rammed a pickup truck into a crowd in New Orleans’ famed French Quarter — killing 14 people who were celebrating the New Year.
As a new year dawns, it’s also report-card season — and many South Florida restaurants and food trucks earned straight As, from North South Grill in Pembroke Pines to the Cheesecake Factory in West Palm Beach.

Temperatures this weekend will drop in South Florida to the coldest of the season thus far, according to the National Weather Service.
Saturday morning will see temperatures as low as the mid to upper 40s in inland suburbs of the east coast metro area, with slightly warmer conditions along the coast.
