THE 87th ANNUAL MACY’S THANKSGIVING DAY PARADE
November 28, 2013  | By David Bianculli

NBC, 9:00 a.m. ET

 

This morning, New York city officials will determine whether the sustained winds and wind gusts in the city are sufficiently severe to ground the Macy’s balloons this year – in which case the 2013 parade telecast will really blow. The cutoff numbers are 23 m.p.h. sustained and 34 m.p.h. for gusts – anything above that, and the airborne part of the parade is grounded. After all that work, expense and planning? Good grief, Charlie Brown.
