SUMMARY: Today will be rainy with off-and-on showers and a chance of thunderstorms, while breezy conditions may create gusts up to 20 mph. Temperatures will remain seasonable in the upper 50s, reaching a high of 60 degrees. The rain is part of a larger system moving from Louisiana to Minnesota. For outdoor activities, be cautious of thunder. Tonight, showers will gradually end with a low of 53 degrees. Looking ahead, Veterans Day will feature sunny weather and temperatures around 67 degrees, before a few showers return on Wednesday. Overall, today is our only wet day this week.

Most of the smaller rivers, that had flooding problems, have now started to fall. The Meramec River is expected to fall below flood stages by Sunday night, even with the additional rain Saturday. The Mississippi and Missouri Rivers remain well within the banks as both have been running low and can handle the amount of rain flowing into them since last weekend.

Our Saturday will be on the rainy side. Showers will pick up for the afternoon. There will be a few isolated storms too. Most areas will see less than a half an inch of rain. There is a chance a few areas may get under a couple of heavier showers, but the amounts are not expected to prolong any river flooding.

By Sunday morning, the rain will be moving away from our region and any clouds will move out during the morning. Sunday is the pick day of the weekend with highs well into the 60s.

SUMMARY: A devastating fire in Eureka destroyed a home in the popular Legends community. The Biederman family, including Jeff, his wife Brianna, and their two young children, lost most of their possessions but escaped unharmed. They credit their Doberman Pinscher for alerting them to the fire, allowing them to evacuate in time. The fire, which began around midnight, quickly engulfed both the house and garage. Despite losing a cat in the blaze, the family managed to save their other pets. The cause of the fire is still under investigation, and several fire departments helped battle the flames.

Eureka Assistant Fire Chief Scott Berthelmas says that his crew received the call for the fire just before midnight. While on the way to the fire, officials say crews could see the flames from afar. By the time fire crews arrived on the scene, both the home and the attached garage were already fully engulfed in flames.

SUMMARY: A lawsuit against former pediatrician Craig Spiegel, initiated by attorney Ben Crump and local attorney Kayla Onder, focuses on allegations of trading drugs for sexual favors from patients. At a news conference, a former patient, Mallory, emphasized that abuses should be held accountable, claiming Spiegel exploited women and children under the pretense of medical treatment. SSM Health, which previously housed Spiegel, denied any employment relationship with him. Federal prosecutors revealed that at least 25 individuals received controlled substances from Spiegel in exchange for sexual acts. Additional abuse allegations spanning a decade may surface, although no court date has been set.

A former pediatrician and SSM Health are now the focus of a lawsuit filed by nationally known attorney Ben Crump and local attorney Kayla Onder.
