A hand- ful of the thunderstorms threaten to turn strong with damaging winds and hail in the vicinity of the Delmarva Peninsula. However, thunder will be lacking across New England as cooler air from the Atlantic flows in. Severe thunderstorms will also extend across Kentucky and Tennessee to eastern Colorado and southward to the southern High Plains. Meanwhile, pleasantly warm air will filter into the Northwest and northern Rockies. A thunderstorm will dot parts of the Southwest.

The crash occurred around 2:15 a.m. on Inter- state 10, just west of Blythe near the Arizona border, where the eastbound truck jackknifed onto the median and spilled its cargo into all lanes in both directions, ac- cording to the California De- partment of Transportation. The westbound bus either swerved to avoid the pipes or struck them and over- turned, sliding across the shoulder and 50 feet down a slight embankment, said Terri Kasinga of the trans- portation department. The bus, with 32 people aboard, was traveling overnight on an 800-mile route from El Paso, Texas, to Los Angeles. Two passenger vehicles in the eastbound lanes also crashed, but nobody was hurt in those crashes. The four fatalities were aboardthebus,Kasingasaid. Seven seriously hurt bus passengers were taken to hospitals, and 14 others sought evaluation of minor injuries such as bumps and bruises, according to Cali- fornia Highway Patrol Offi- cer Jason Gerard. The driver of the bus was unhurt. The remaining pas- sengers were taken to Blythe to be interviewed by investi- gators. Signs on the interstate urged drivers to find alter- nate routes, though by di- verting traffic onto frontage roads officials were able to keep traffic moving around the accident scene in both directions. All lanes of the interstate were to remain closed until at least Wednes- day afternoon, Kasinga said. The bus, operated by El Paso-Los Angeles Limousine Express Inc., had switched drivers in Phoenix, Kas- inga said. It was not known if the driver was among the victims. The company sent smaller charter buses to transport the uninjured pas- sengers. The company received a "satisfactory" safety rating as of its last review in Feb- ruary, according to federal inspection records. Other records kept by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Ad- ministration show the com- pany has 55 vehicles, five of which have been involved in crashes since June 2012. One of the crashes involved a single death, and one per- son was injured in another. A message seeking com- ment from the bus company was not immediately re- turned. The truck driver was un- hurt. The tractor-trailer had an insignia for VG Transport of Rialto, California, Gerard said. According to the federal safety records, VG Trans- port has not been involved in any crashes reported to state officials over the past two years. Those records say the company has only one truck. The truck passed three in- spections over the past two years, though the driver was not allowed to continue working after one of those inspections for reasons that were not immediately clear.
