About 100 people remain without power in Lucas County tonight. 

Weather-related equipment problems had caused more than 1,200 Toledo Edison customers in Wood and Lucas counties to lose power but most are back online.

Nearly 800 customers in Perrysburg and Perrysburg Township were affected. By 10:10 p.m., crews at the utility's Levis Park substation were working to fix the problem and get power back online, an Edison spokesman said. 

As rain became a rain-snow mix, southwesterly winds of 25 mph were gusting to 33 mph at Toledo Executive Airport, the former Metcalf Field, in Lake Township, according to the National Weather Service.
