Storms through suburbs take out power, disrupt travel

July 01, 2014

Storms came in with driving wind, rain and lightning Monday evening, but damage from the earliest line of bad weather was largely limited to lightning strikes and downed power lines and trees, officials said. An early line of storms moved into the area around 6 p.m., disrupting air and train travel and leaving about 63,000 ComEd customers without power as of 10 p.m. Airlines reported more than two-hour delays with 450 flights canceled at O'Hare.
