Wentzville man sentenced in White Castle shooting, armed robberies ST. LOUIS - A federal judge sentenced a Wentzville man Thursday in connection with two armed robberies at a White Caste restaurant in University City, including one that led him to shooting an employee. Matthew Sabir, 38, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison, nearly one year after both armed robberies and the shooting occurred. He targeted the White Castle restaurant in the 7300 block of Olive Boulevard. Thieves target car washes, business owners band together to fight back According to a plea agreement, Sabir entered the restaurant on June 22, 2022 and demanded "all the $20 and $50 bills" from an employee. Sabir reportedly placed a semi-automatic pistol on the countertop and left with around $180 in cash. Later that week, after a failed robbery of a gas station in Berkeley, Sabir returned to the White Castle. Per his plea agreement, he told employees "Give me money. Don’t move. Don’t run,” and pointed a pistol at them. Several employees ran away, and Sabir opened fire, hitti...

These areas of California could be underwater by 2050

Published Fri, 19 Apr 2024 00:42:10 GMT

These areas of California could be underwater by 2050 Residents of the northeastern U.S. saw firsthand this summer the devastation flooding can cause in a community. Unfortunately, scientists predict flooding will only become more common as the years go on. A map created by Climate Central, an organization of scientists and journalists focused on studying the impacts of climate change, shows what the future may hold for coastal communities as sea level rises.In the first map (below), we set the projections to include sea level rise and typical annual flooding (weather that can be expected every year). We set the map to include what would happen with "unchecked pollution" between now and 2050. That setting most closely matches the current path we're on, Climate Central said. Earth gets hotter, deadlier despite decades of global climate talks For luck, we set the bar to "medium," which reflects the middle range of possibilities predicted by scientists. Explore the interactive map below to zoom in on impacts around the country. You can...

New forecast released for California, and it's looking hot

Published Fri, 19 Apr 2024 00:42:10 GMT

New forecast released for California, and it's looking hot This summer of heat waves, "wet bulb" danger, and record temperatures isn't cooling down anytime soon – at least not for most states. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration released its weather predictions for August on Thursday, showing the vast majority of the U.S. painted in shades of orange and red. The darker the color, the more likely a place is to see above-average temperatures next month. Things look worst in the Pacific Northwest, where western Oregon and Washington have a 60 to 70 percent chance of an extra-hot August. El Niño officially arrives early: What it means for 2023 weather But almost no one is spared. The entire west, south and east parts of the country are favoring above-average heat next month, according to the forecast.Only a handful of states have slight chances to see below-average temperatures this August: North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Minnesota, Iowa, and parts of other nearby states. States shaded in white are a toss up: NOAA meteo...
