CRAWFORD CO., Ill.—We’re hearing that many electric users of Ameren CIPS in Crawford County are without power this afternoon after a line of storms moved through, producing a few lightning strikes that apparently had a detrimental effect.
We’ve learned of reports of power outages north of Annapolis; north of Oblong; areas north of Highway 33 on the west of Robinson; north of Trimble; and in and around Ste. Marie (in neighboring Jasper County).
Most of the storms have cleared the area. Feel free to post if your power is back on in your area.
