Much of the upper mid-Atlantic coast to New England will be free of rain. Farther west, a swath of severe thunderstorms will extend from Arkansas and northern Mississippi to the Lower Peninsula of Michigan, Indiana and Ohio. These storms can produce damaging wind gusts, frequent lightning and flash flooding. Parts of the Upper Midwest can expect a fall-like storm with wind-driven rain and chilly air for August.

ByMikeCorder The Associated Press LEROS,GREECE Theisland- ers bring food, drinks, cloth- ing and necessities like dia- pers and toothpaste to the migrants huddled on this tiny outcrop in the Aegean Sea. The generosity comes naturally to residents of Le- ros: The island once took in political prisoners ban- ished here by Greece's for- mer military rulers, a tradi- tion that breeds a sense of duty to welcome migrants fleeing war and poverty in the Middle East and Africa. A dedicated grass-roots network is the heart of Le- ros' mission to be a paragon of humanitarian relief. But it is becoming a victim of its own success: Migrant arriv- als are surging as asylum- seekers catch wind of the islanders' generosity — and the welcome mat is starting to fray. The 29-square-mile is- land, with a permanent population of fewer than 10,000 people, is strug- gling to cope with the hun- dreds of migrants who turn up most days in smugglers' boats, following a perilous boat crossing from Turkey. "People in Turkey said we should come here because this was maybe the best is- land in Greece," said Obaida Sabbouh, a Syrian from the war-torn city of Homs. This week, hundreds of migrants were camped out on the shaded grounds of the island's hospital, in a half-built seaside cinema and theater complex, and at the headquarters of the local coast guard as they waited forseatsonthenextavailable ferry to the Greek mainland. There is no daily ferry service, and in the tour- ist season seats are scarce. That means migrants often have to wait days to leave, sleeping rough and relying on handouts. "The municipality and the (volunteer) solidarity network are trying their best to help the people, but their manpower and re- sources aren't enough," said the island's mayor, Michalis Kolias. "The situation is ... tragic." The driving force be- hind the volunteer net- work is Martina Katsiveli, a 60-year-old former judge, who marshals residents and tourists but also urges the migrants to help themselves — handing out brooms and garbage bags for keeping camps clean. A refugee activist for years, she has traveled to Bosnia, Kosovo and Iraq to help refugees. Now they are coming to her. "I can- not turn my head away," she said. "I saw how cata- strophic war is." "Hello, Madam Martina," one man calls out as she walks past a group wash- ing clothes on the hospital grounds. A youngster asks her for a cigarette for his sister, although it's clearly for him. She asks how old he is; he looks younger than his reply of "18." She hands him a cigarette anyway, from the crumpled pack she carries with her at all times, along with a frequently ringing mobile phone. Katsiveli noted that of the 9,000 migrants who landed on the island this year, 2,550 have come in the last 15 days. She fears the numbers are stretching even her ded- icated network to the break- ing point. "We can't sustain this situation," she said. "There is no money." A block down a dusty, tree-lined street, some 200 migrants sought shel- ter from the sun on the grounds of the coast guard headquarters — many of them sitting on the life vests they wore on their cross- ings. The migrants have to share one toilet. There are no showers. Housing the migrants is a constant problem. Author- ities want them out of the hospital grounds, but there are few places to go. Au- thorities even investigated the possibility of putting them up in an old psychiat- ric hospital, but rejected the idea as impractical and too expensive, Katsiveli said.
