Speaker 1 (00:01):
From the city that changes the world. Peers Rose with
three things you need to know.
Speaker 2 (00:06):
Are your Friday Rose Gieffris. The average rate for a
thirty year mortgage fell again this week to its lowest
levels since October, which is really nice to hear. So
the rate dropped to six point six nine percent. Last
year at the same time, the average was a seven
point zero three percent, so we're moving in the right direction.
The average rate on a fifteen year fixed rate mortgage
(00:27):
dropped to five point ninety six percent this week. So
there's a new report that it's crediting an increase in
working from home for a recent improvement in DC area
air quality and carbon emissions. So this is pretty cool.
According to available data, this was between twenty nineteen and
twenty twenty two, obviously high pandemic everybody was working from home.
It found that work from home in the DC area
(00:49):
increased by two hundred and seventy nine percent, which makes sense,
and the area's carbon footprint fell by more than twenty
three percent dim the air quality improved by just over
five percent. This said, he found the DC's environmental improvement
during the period was the second highest among large cities
in the US. Baltimore plays first overall, so top of
(01:10):
the list, which I think that's a pretty good list
to top. And McDonald's is bringing back the snack wraps
let's go. I saw this everywhere on social media yesterday
and not gonna lie, pretty excited about it because that
was one of my favorite things at McDonald's. Hasn't been
on the menu since twenty sixteen, but they're bringing it
back in twenty twenty five. They haven't given like an
(01:31):
exact date, but it's back. Baby, I'm Rose. Those are
the three things you used to know for the day.
