The storms brought with them high winds, with some of the gusts reaching 70 to 80 miles per hour with hail in some places. It led to tens of thousands of homes across Northeast Ohio to be without power as downed trees led to outages.

One of the first reports of damage came from the North Ridgeville Police Department, who reported that Route 83 north was closed after a fallen tree took down power wires at around 5:30 p.m.

As the storms moved eastward into Cuyahoga County, our 3News cameras were out and caught these images of storm damage, including in spots in Westlake and Bay Village.
