  1. Oh wow, this is going to suck. Possible mass desert stranding of people with no gas. And because the cell phone towers are out, people aren't going to get that WEA messager.

    "...Due to an accident on I40, the town of Seligman is without power, and there are NO SERVICES between Kingman and Ash Fork, AZ. Travelers should fuel, eat, and rest in Kingman or Ash Fork. Cell phone service may also be compromised. Residents who need assistance with ice, food, water, etc., call Yavapai County Office of Emergency Management at 928-442-5103..."

  2. Flash Flood Warning is probably the most dangerous section of the I-40 near Kingman. 😬

    I have slowly driven by two fatal accidents there before (one, stuck on the freeway for several hours). In only a handful of trips. The downhill going westbound to Kingman was particularly bad a few years ago when they were doing construction, it was down to one lane in spots, and the semi drivers were playing chicken with the barriers, often cutting into the left lane at the very last possible moment. And the interstate was absolutely thrashed, very easy to shred a tire, too. And everyone was speeding.

  15. From meteorologist Jonathan Hunter, photos of Interstate 40 #I40 at the #Tennessee / #NorthCarolina border. A landslide has washed out the eastbound side of the interstate.

  16. Meanwhile, in monsoon territory... semi and 4 vehicles stuck in the mud... appears they decided to go get gas at the one Chevron for 8 bazillion miles, and they got flash flooded at the offramp. #monsoon #I40 #Mojave

  17. Still terrible out there in the Mojave. Surprised how few people check the routes and news before heading on a big trip like that into the desert. Screenshot as of 7/27 19:18PT quickmap.dot.ca.gov/ #I15 #I40 #BakerIncident

  18. 4 hour delay on 40, "NOT FUEL IN LUDLOW" per CHP at 7/27/24 1755 PT #BakerIncident #I40

  19. From her video (hellsite) "we've been here for a very long time... we're still stranded... people are overheating... people are hungry, people need to go the bathroom... people need to eat... " #BakerIncident #DesertDisaster #I40 #I15 #LasVegas

  20. I-40 on 7/27/24 1:01pm, images from video from New Las Vegas (Chloe Koast). "hours long line for gas" and no movement on the I-40. #BakerIncident #DesertDisaster #I40 #I15 #Mojave

  21. I wonder what this is "FATHER WALKED AWAY FROM VEH"

    I mean, did their dad just wander off into the desert?

  22. It appears it did trigger heat emergencies (as I suspected last night) and also looks like it disabled many vehicles (overheating?)

    San Bernardino County Fire: "The San Bernardino County Fire Logistics Division has brought supplies to the Clyde V Kane Rest Stop off the northbound 15, south of Afton Canyon Road. Water has been provided at this location for motorists who are stuck without water and experiencing other issues due to heat and vehicle mechanical problems."

    9pm also there was an update on firefighting operations.
