Utilities said tens of thousands of customers statewide were without power Wednesday morning because of winds that reached 66 mph in Cleveland and 58 mph in Youngstown. In northern Ohio, a train derailed on a bridge over Sandusky Bay, sending as many as four freight cars into the water, said Ottawa County Sheriff Robert Bratton.

Bratton said the derailment occurred around 4:15 a.m. Wednesday. Authorities were working on the assumption that the cars were blown off the bridge by high winds near the Lake Erie coastline.

In the Cleveland area, the temperature reached a high of 51 Tuesday and dropped to 14 degrees by Wednesday morning.

you guys are so lucky......
