Monday night’s rain didn't stop people from ringing in the New Year in Times Square.

Hundreds of thousands packing into a rain-soaked Broadway and 7th Avenue to see the crystal ball drop at the stroke of midnight.

The weather dampening the mood, but only slightly. It was the first time in 25 years that the crowds rang in the New Year with rain.

Across the country, the Seattle Space Needle was lit up with fireworks. Revelers gathered in the city's downtown area to blast off into the New Year.

It was no different in Sin City. Fireworks shot off hotels along the Las Vegas strip, with the casinos all setting off fireworks at the same time.
