BALTIMORE -- A container ship lost power and rammed into a major bridge in Baltimore early Tuesday, March 26, 2024, causing it to snap and plunge into the river below. Several vehicles fell into the chilly waters, and rescuers searched for survivors.The operators of the ship issued a mayday call moments before the crash that took down the Francis Scott Key Bridge, enabling authorities to limit vehicle traffic on the span, Maryland’s governor said.The ship crashed into one of the bridge’s supports, causing the structure to break apart like a toy. It tumbled into the water in a matter of seconds — a shocking spectacle that was captured on video and posted on social media. The vessel caught fire, and thick, black smoke billowed out of it.The crash happened long before the busy morning commute in what one official called a “developing mass casualty event.” Two people were rescued, and officials said six people were still unaccounted for. All were believed to be those working on the bridge when it collapsed.“Never would you think that you would see, physically see, the Key Bridge tumble down like that. It looked like something out of an action movie,” said Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott, calling it “an unthinkable tragedy.”Authorities said a crew of unknown size was working on the bridge at the time of the collapse and that sonar had detected cars in the water, which is about 50 feet (15 meters) deep. The water temperature was about 47 degrees Fahrenheit (8 degrees Celsius) before dawn Tuesday, according to a buoy that collects data for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.Earlier, Kevin Cartwright, director of communications for the Baltimore Fire Department, told The Associated Press that several vehicles were on the bridge at the time of the collapse, including one the size of a tractor-trailer truck. The bridge came down in the middle of night when traffic would be lighter than during the day when thousands of cars traverse the span.Cartwright called the collapse a “developing mass casualty event,” though he didn't know at the time how many people were affected.Synergy Marine Group — which manages the ship, called the Dali — confirmed the vessel hit a pillar of the bridge at about 1:30 a.m. while in control of one or more pilots, who are local specialists who help navigate vessels safely into ports. The ship is owned by Grace Ocean Private Ltd.It said all crew members, including the two pilots on board, were accounted for and there were no reports of any injuries.As the sun rose Tuesday, jagged remnants of the bridge were illuminated jutting up from the waters surface. The on-ramp ended abruptly where the span once began.Cartwright said that some cargo appeared to be dangling from the bridge, which spans the Patapsco River at the entrance to a busy harbor. The river leads to the Port of Baltimore, a major hub for shipping on the East Coast. Opened in 1977, the bridge is named for the writer of “The Star-Spangled Banner.”Maryland Transportation Secretary Paul Wiedefeld said all vessel traffic into and out of the port would be suspended until further notice, though the facility was still open to trucks.Governor Wes Moore declared a state of emergency and said he was working to get federal resources deployed. The FBI was on the scene, but said there was no credible information to suggest terrorism. President Joe Biden was briefed.The Dali was headed from Baltimore to Colombo, Sri Lanka, and flying under a Singapore flag, according to data from Marine Traffic. The container ship is about 985 feet (300 meters) long and about 157 feet (48 meters) wide, according to the website.Danish shipping giant Maersk said it had chartered the vessel, which was carrying its customers’ cargo. No Maersk crew and personnel were on board. The collapse caused Maersk share at the Nasdaq Copenhagen to plummet two percent in early Tuesday trading.In 2001, a freight train carrying hazardous materials derailed in a tunnel in downtown Baltimore and caught fire, spewing black smoke into surrounding neighborhoods and forcing officials to temporarily close all major roads into the city.

(LMY) Best Sports Betting Sites Philippines 2022 CEBUANOS are advised to brace for potentially the highest heat index of the month yet on Wednesday, April 24, 2024, as the heat index or the apparent temperature is expected to peak at 40 degrees Celsius.The state weather bureau, Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Services Administration (Pagasa), on its official website, predicted at 5 p.m. on April 22 that its Lapu-Lapu City station in Cebu would record the highest heat index for Cebu yet at 40 degrees Celsius on Wednesday.This was also confirmed by Jhomer Eclarino, a weather specialist at Pagasa Visayas in Lapu-Lapu City, in an interview over Facebook’s Messenger on Tuesday, April 23. Cebu sweltered for two straight days, with a heat index hitting 39 degrees Celsius at 2 p.m. on both Monday and Tuesday, April 22 and 23. On May 17, 2023, Cebu’s heat index reached 43 degrees Celsius. Heat index refers to a measure that indicates the level of discomfort the average person is thought to experience as a result of the combined effects of the temperature and humidity of the air.Pagasa Visayas chief Alfredo Quiblat Jr., in a previous interview with SunStar Cebu, said they started recording heat index in 2018 as they deemed it had become relevant. Based on its effect-based classification, a heat index between 33 to 41 degrees Celsius is classified under the extreme caution category. Under this category, the effects on the body include heat cramps and heat exhaustion. Continuing activity may also lead to heat stroke.Among the symptoms of heat-related illnesses to watch out for are sweating heavily, exhaustion or fatigue, dizziness, blacking out, weak but fast pulse, feeling of nausea, and vomiting.Among the prevention measures Pagasa suggested are limiting the time spent outdoors, drinking plenty of water, wearing umbrellas, hats, and sleeved clothing, and scheduling heavy-duty activities for the beginning or end of the day when it’s cooler.Nationwide, Pagasa predicted the highest heat index on Wednesday in the cities of Zamboanga and Roxas at 45 degrees Celsius, followed by Dagupan City, Puerto Princesa City and Aborlan in Palawan at 44 degrees Celsius.Meanwhile, the lowest heat index on Wednesday, at 27 degrees Celsius, will be in Baguio City and La Trinidad in Benguet in Luzon. / WBS
