Power Restoration Efforts Continue in Michigan as Thousands Remain Without Electricity

Consumers Energy is working to restore power to the areas hardest hit by a recent storm in Michigan, including Kent, Ionia, Ingham, Eaton, Jackson, and Livingston counties, by the end of Monday. Around 85% of the nearly 200,000 customers who lost power have already had their power restored. Crews from six states are working around the clock to clean up the storm damage and restore power. An EF1 tornado with winds up to 110 mph touched down during the storm. Drivers are advised to slow down and go around power crews, and to stay away from downed power lines and report them to 911 and Consumers Energy.
