Published Fri, 01 Nov 2024 06:37:02 GMT
ST. LOUIS -- It's a chilly start out there, behind the second cold front. It was the coolest morning of the season so far. In fact, we haven't dipped below 50 degrees since May 4th. The skies have cleared, so we'll have plenty of sunshine today. But despite that sunshine, temperatures will be cool, in the low 60s, and a bit breezy. Overnight temperatures will fall to the upper 30s and low/mid 40s again. We could see some patchy frost in colder, rural locations. Sunday will be a bit warmer, with highs in the low 70s. Another push of cooler air moves in late Sunday, which cools us off again for Monday with highs in the mid-60s. Rain chances increase on Wednesday.Highest-rated wineries in Missouri, according to Yelp

A new survey conducted by Inova Health Systems found that nearly half, 44%, of Virginians say that they would be afraid to seek care for addiction, or substance use disorder. But with the number of people who say they know someone struggling with the disease on the rise, doctors in Northern Virginia are looking to change that.The survey also showed that a little more than 32% of adults in Northern Virginia in 2022 said they know someone personally struggling with addiction — that’s up from 25% in 2021.“Substance use disorders are a preventable and treatable condition. It’s important people realize that,” said Dr. Zeina Saliba, chief of the addiction and recovery services division for Inova. Saliba is also an assistant professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences at George Washington University.She said addiction is a chronic illness like many others, and that her life’s work is aimed at helping people open up about their struggles.“We are working to educate, and...Swiatek ends Gauff’s 16-match winning streak in Beijing, Alcaraz breezes through in Shanghai

BEIJING (AP) — Second-ranked Iga Swiatek ended Coco Gauff’s 16-match winning streak as she advanced to the China Open final with a dominant 6-2, 6-3 victory over the U.S. Open champion on Saturday.It was the 19-year-old Gauff’s first loss since the quarterfinals in Montreal, a span that included titles in Cincinnati and at Flushing Meadows.Swiatek will meet No.22-ranked Liudmila Samsonova in Sunday’s final, after the Russian ousted fifth-seeded Elena Rybakina 7-6 (7), 6-3. The Polish player made just four unforced errors in the first set, keeping consistent pressure on Gauff’s serve, and made a decisive break at 3-1 to ease through the set in 40 minutes.Swiatek maintained her vice-like grip on the match, breaking Gauff at the start of the second set to lead 2-0. A medical timeout to have Gauff’s right shoulder assessed didn’t break Swiatek’s momentum as she closed it out to extend her head-to-head record against her rival to 8-1. “I’m really happy with ...Despite wide support for Ukraine aid in Congress, it seems no one could muscle $6 billion to passage

WASHINGTON (AP) — The collapse of Ukraine aid in Congress was months in the making, and exactly what Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell had feared.McConnell had warned that political support for Ukraine was in danger as a small but vocal contingent of fellow Republican lawmakers intensified their efforts against sending U.S. money overseas for the fight against Russia.First in a series of high-profile speeches this summer then in direct overtures to the White House, the Republican leader who had visited Kyiv and put a priority on U.S. support for Ukraine tried to steer the hard-right flank of his party.But in the end, neither McConnell nor the White House nor Democrats in Congress could muscle a scaled-back $6 billion military and civilian aid package for Ukraine to passage in last week’s deal to avoid a U.S. government shutdown. Despite overwhelming bipartisan support in Washington for stopping Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion, the failure to approve Uk...Conflicto de Israel-Gaza: datos históricos que tienes que saber
