Good morning. It's Monday, Jan. 29. Today is the deadline for former U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown, whose district included parts of Orlando, to report to prison after being convicted on fraud charges.

Meanwhile, President Trump will deliver his first State of the Union address Tuesday night, and an area family displaced from Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria will be there.

And finally, UCF's undefeated football team was recognized Sunday during the AFC's 24-23 victory against the NFC at the Pro Bowl at Camping World Stadium. You can find Pro Bowl pictures here.
