According to FirstEnergy, more than 44,000 customers in northeastern Ohio are currently deprived of electricity because of severe thunderstorms in the area.
Almost all of these failures occurred only in Cuyahoga (16,000), Lake (17,000) and Lorain (8,000) counties. Most devices should be available again at 8pm, but some might not have service before Sunday afternoon.
A violent thunderstorm warning affected parts of Ashtabula, Cuyahoga, Geauga and Lake Counties until 5:15 pm. WKYC meteorologist Matt Wintz provided an update on the situation earlier on Facebook.
We received several photos of the damage caused by the storm in the area.
Hail has also been observed in some places, including Ashtabula.
