by Amy Furr

Winter storm Gage is causing massive power outages, flight delays, and traffic snarls in the upper Midwest and New England.

“High winds from a winter storm sweeping across the nation have caused tens of thousands of customers from Michigan and Ohio and across the Northeast United States to lose electricity Monday morning,” according to the Weather Channel.

The report continued:

Blackouts hit more than 100,000 homes and businesses, according to poweroutage.us. At one point, more than 125,000 Ohio customers had no power. Steady winds began blowing between 20 and 30 mph early Monday. Gusts reached 50 to 70 mph from southwest to central and northeast Ohio, including around Dayton, Columbus and Cleveland. The strong winds were associated with a cold front moving through the state.

American, Delta, and United airlines have issued weather waivers for several Midwest airports including Minneapolis, St. Paul, and Denver, Forbes reported.
