Meanwhile, rain is forecast to develop over the Outer Banks and drift slowly northward along the Atlantic coast. A zone of drenching showers and thunderstorms will reach from the central and western Gulf Coast to part of the Ohio Valley and central Appalachians. Isolated incidents of flash flooding can occur in this zone. Heat will shift from the West and into the central and northern Plains.

Flush with cash, they fix roads, police traffic, administer courts, and have even set up an export sys- tem of smuggled crude from oil fields they have seized. But the extremists — a mix of Iraqis and Syrians but also foreign fighters from Arab countries and non-Arab regions like the Caucasus — run the risk of provoking a backlash from the people they have come to rule. Unlike Lebanon's Hezbol- lah or the Palestinian mil- itant group Hamas, which have deep roots in their communities, the Islamic State group is not a grass- roots movement and its sway over its populations is ultimately based on vi- olence, not necessarily a groundswell of support for its vision of a hard-line Is- lamic caliphate. While it has been welcomed by some disenfranchised Iraqi Sun- nis as potential saviors from the Shiite-dominated government in Baghdad, many consider the group an alien entity. In recognition of that, the group has varied the imposition of the radical version of Islamic law they advocate. In their main stronghold in Syria, the city of Raqqa, they have un- leashed it without reserve, killing perceived offenders and cutting off the hands of thieves in public. But in Iraq's second largest city, Mosul, they have been more cautious. They've taken some steps like banning alcohol and painting over street adver- tisements that show wom- en's faces — but have held off on strict punishments. The Iraqi city of Dulu- iyah is a prime example of the possibility for over- reach. Weeks ago, a small group of Islamic State fighters and other insurgents entered the Sunni-majority city just north of Baghdad and were welcomed by residents, said one resident, Jassim Mo- hammed. But within days, the Islamic State fighters came with lists of "wanted" men, including police offi- cers and local businessmen. That prompted an upris- ing by residents who forced the militants out, leaving the town under control of Sunni tribesmen, Moham- med said. On Sunday, Islamic State fighters stormed back into Duluiyah, seizing the may- or's office, police station, lo- cal council and courthouse. There has also been less dramatic pushback. In Mo- sul, the militants offered three local figures the post of governor of Ninevah— the province of which Mo- sul is the capital — and each refused, said Laith, a civil servant in the city who asked to be identified only by his first name for his own safety. "People are worried that the (Iraqi) government might come back and that they would be punished for dealing with the Islamic State," he said. The leader of the Islamic State group appears to rec- ognize that over the long- term his fighters are not governors. In an address af- ter the June 9 fall of Mosul, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi ap- pealed to Muslims around the world with practical skills — scholars, judges, doctors, engineers and ad- ministrators — to flock to the regions his group con- trols to help build the state. Over the past month, the group has consolidated its hold over an impressive stretch of territory, roughly 700 kilometers (435 miles) from end to end. From its western-most end on the outskirts of the Syrian city of Aleppo, it stretches across northern Syria and most of the east then bridges into most Sunni-dominated ar- eas of northern and west- ern Iraq up to the edges of Baghdad. Among the first moves it took in parts of Syria that it captured were to set up various Islamic administra- tive departments staffed by its fighters and sympathiz- ers: Islamic courts to set- tle disputes; "Hisba" of- fices, which enforce Sha- riah rules; and "Daawa" offices for proselytizing and spreading its ideology. The showcase of the ex- tremist group's vision is Raqqa, a city of 500,000 in northern Syria along the Euphrates River. There, the militants have banned music and smoking and forced women to cover up. They have killed violators of Shariah in the main square, including by beheadings, and have hung the bodies of some on crosses. An ac- tivist group in Syria on Fri- day reported that a Syr- ian woman was stoned to death for adultery for the first time. The report could not be independently con- firmed. A photo posted online by the group this week showed fighters in the eastern Syr- ian region of Hassakeh pun- ishing residents who broke the Ramadan fast: The men knelt on the ground as fight- ers stood behind them with canes to lash them. Another priority has been to provide services. In Raqqa, the group pays wages to city employees, has rebuilt damaged power lines and has kept up wa- ter and electricity services. During the holy month of Ramadan, it has distrib- uted food and other aid to residents in Raqqa, Iraq's Mosul and other areas. Immediately after tak- ing over Mosul, the Islamic State group had power lines fixed, ensuring electricity for up to 18 hours a day un- til government forces blew up some towers, said Laith. Most state employees in Mosul have not been paid, but militants have prom- ised to do so. Residents' big- gest complaint has been se- vere fuel shortages since the takeover, Laith said.
