ComEd: Wind, rain to blame for outages

More than 370 Morris ComEd customers impacted by outage

A storm system that moved through Morris Sunday knocked out power for a portion of residents, but did not pack much of a punch otherwise, according to area officials.

According to John Schoen, spokesman for ComEd, outages affected about 376 customers in Morris, but at the peak of the storm, about 25,000 ComEd customers throughout the Chicagoland were without power.

"It was pretty widespread," Schoen said. "We were spread out in a lot of areas working on restoration efforts."
