April 6, 2009

More than 100 Consumers Energy customers in East Lansing lost power Monday after winter storms blanketed the state.

As of 4 p.m. Monday, 102 East Lansing residents were without power, Consumers Energy spokesman Terry DeDoes said.

About 800 Consumers Energy customers in Ingham County and 51,000 customers throughout the state were without power Monday morning.

DeDoes said those without power should expect to have it back by Tuesday afternoon at the latest.

The winter weather also left 52 Lansing Board of Water & Light customers powerless Monday, according to a company press release.

The affected customers primarily were residents near downtown Lansing. Crews restored power to those customers by Monday afternoon.
