Power outage update

Crews continue working to restore electricity for thousands of Central Ohioans and others around the state hit hard by the weekend storms. Columbus-based American Electric Power says crews have restored service to more than 245-thousand of the 680-thousand customers affected by the storms. AEP says 24-thousand of its Central Ohio customers have no service, with the bulk of the outages in Franklin County. The company says Columbus-area customers will not have service until the weekend.
