CLEVELAND — Severe weather made its way through Northeast Ohio on Thursday evening, leaving plenty of damage in its path.
The Ohio Turnpike issued a travel advisory as the westbound lanes were closed in Sandusky County for nearly 24 hours due to downed power lines at mile post 94. At 7:55 p.m. on Friday, the lanes were reopened.
We received many photos and videos of storm damage from all over Northern Ohio.
The video below -- submitted by Blake Loy -- shows a strong storm hitting Point Place in Toledo:
