Colder weather could still cut power in Ohio
Utilities credit conservation with averting major blackouts as a major winter storm looms. With near zero temperatures possible, demand could spike and coal supplies freeze. CEI and Toledo Edison cut voltage five percent. Ohio Edison and CEI urge reduced electricity use. Toledo Edison fears Davis Besse nuclear plant restart today after testing at 75 percent capacity. Coal stockpiles frozen from wet coal and rain, plus a conveyor breakdown at Avon Lake, limit generating capacity. Columbia Gas of Ohio reports stable gas pressures despite cold. Fuel oil and gasoline deliveries to stations were delayed but largely back to normal.

Elyria and Berea report state and county road help, while local cities often clear their own state and county roads to relieve pressure on budgets.
