Electrical power was out for over 3 hours this morning in an area of Rochelle due to the storm.
The outage was caused by high winds which broke tree limbs that fell and tore down some conductors for RMU.
The blackout took place at 6:10 this morning on the Northwest side of Rochelle and affected around 730 RMU customers. Electrical power was restored a short time before 9:30.
The power outage also affected the traffic signals at Route 38 and Dement Road. They are now working again.
