Mid-Atlantic Outages Strain Life After Derecho Storms
Three million residents faced days without power after a derecho tore across the mid-Atlantic. Millions endured 100 degree heat, spoiled food, and long commutes as downed trees and lines crippled services from Virginia to Washington. Deaths were reported in several states, while crews from Florida and Oklahoma joined local teams to restore power and keep water plants running. Governor O Malley vowed swift utility action as neighbors shared food and ice amid the crisis.
