NIAGARA FALLS, N.Y. -- Even though the snow might fly today, one of the area's most popular boats is in the water.

Saturday is the first day of business for the The Maid Of The Mist's 2016 season.

Employees are hoping for another record-breaking year, the Maid of The Mist carried 1.4 million passengers in 2015.

The company even extended their season, staying open until November to accommodate visitors.

This will be the 131st year of business for the boat tours.

Company officials say in that time, they've seen dozens of celebrity tourists including Brad Pitt and Marilyn Monroe.
