Storm damages hit upstate New York as crews rush to restore power
Power company crews across New York state battled a violent windstorm last night. In Syracuse area crews numbered 15, with about 30,000 customers without power across northern Onondaga and southern Oswego counties, and similar outages in northern Oneida and southern Lewis counties. Crews repaired main lines first, then homes as telephone lines were ripped down. Red Cross reported no immediate shelter needs, while insurers prepared catastrophe responses for estimated over 1 million dollars in area losses.
