The Northeast will be free of rain, while spotty downpours dot the South. Tropical Rainstorm Bonnie may continue to enhance a few downpours over the Carolinas. A swath of showers and locally severe thunderstorms is forecast to extend along a cool front from the Great Lakes region to the middle Mississippi Valley to the southern Plains. A few of the storms can bring damaging wind gusts, hail and flooding.

The staggering death toll foreshadows more disas- ters ahead in the next few months as the region gears up for its traditional sum- mer-fall spike in human trafficking as the weather improves and the seas grow warmer. Aid officials said it also suggests that Libyan smuggling gangs are using even riskier tactics than before to profit from the torrent of those desperate to reach the safety or eco- nomic promise of Europe. Making matters worse, the jaw-dropping tally is only from capsizings or shipwrecks that are known to authorities, who readily admit they simply do not know how many people are being cheated by smugglers, jammed into obviously un- suitable vessels and swal- lowed up by the vast wa- ters of the southern Medi- terranean. Two Eritreans inter- viewed by The Associated Press — among the hun- dreds of shipwreck survi- vors brought to Italian ports — were haunted by the fact that so many women and children had been on their capsized boat and did not survive. They said they could still hear the cries of the children. "I started to cry when I saw the situation and when I found the ship without an engine. There were many women and children," said 21-year-old Filmon Selo- mon who plunged into the sea to save himself. "Water was coming in from every- where, top, bottom." "The children were cry- ing and the women," said Habtom Tekle, a 27-year- old Eritrean. "At this point I only tried to pray. Every- body was trying to take the water out of boat." U.N. refugee spokesman William Spindler told re- porters at a news confer- ence in Geneva that this year is already proving to be "particularly deadly" on the Mediterranean, with some 2,510 lives lost com- pared to 1,855 in the same time span a year ago. The International Or- ganization for Migration, citing what could be a re- cord weekly death toll on the Mediterranean by its count, said Tuesday that 62 people were confirmed dead and another 971 were miss- ing and presumed dead in nine separate deadly emer- gencies since May 25 on the Libya-to-Italy sea route. The U.N. refugee agency said Tuesday it had tallied at least 880 deaths on the Mediterranean over the last week. Spindler noted such estimates are an inexact sci- ence, and said his agency's figures tend to be "conser- vative." Last week marks only the second time since Jan- uary 2014 that 1,000 deaths or more on that route have been tallied in a single month — let alone a sin- gle week, said IOM spokes- man Joel Millman. The only other time was in April last year, with 1,244 dead. He said up until last week, only 13 migrant crossing deaths had been recorded in May in the southern Mediterranean. Spindler gave the follow- ing estimates: about 100 people died in a shipwreck Wednesday; some 550 oth- ers died in another capsiz- ing Thursday, the one that the two Eritreans survived; and a third sinking Friday left 170 others missing and presumed dead. The discrepancy between the agencies stems largely from Wednesday's sinking: IOM now estimates that 250 people died in that in- cident. Like UNHCR, it had originally estimated about 100 deaths. UNHCR said shipwreck survivors who landed in Au- gusta, Italy, over the week- end indicated that another 47 migrants were missing at sea after a raft carrying 125 migrants deflated. It said eight others were lost overboard from another boat and four deaths were reported after fire on a sep- arate vessel. Spindler, speaking along- side Millman, said author- ities were still trying to understand the jump in deaths, even as they know the region is moving into its high season for human traf- ficking. He said some survivors told his agency that some Libyan smugglers appeared to be trying to earn extra cash before the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which begins next week. Spindler also noted new and strikingly risky tactics from the smuggling gangs: he said before this, he had never heard of smugglers using one overloaded boat carrying hundreds of peo- ple to tow another vessel without an engine packed with even more people. The second boat sank Thursday — the most deadly capsiz- ing last week — and carried mostly Eritreans, according to the IOM. Millman said traffickers could be also cutting prices to draw in new migrants — mostly from elsewhere in Africa — and have re- cently been seen using big- ger boats that can carry up to 750 people. Over the last year "smaller rubber inflat- able dinghies" were more prevalent on the smuggling route, he said. Those factors appear to mean that more people were dying even as fewer were coming. IOM said nearly 19,000 migrants arrived by sea to Italy in May — more than twice the figure in April but less than the 21,221 ar- rivals in the same month a year ago. A deal between the Euro- pean Union and Turkey to return migrants has signif- icantly dampened the key route into Europe from Tur- key to Greece, which hun- dreds of thousands of peo- ple used last year.
