Cleveland councilman warns of planned outages coming to city’s west side during high heat
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – Cleveland City Councilman Charles Slife warned of a planned and temporary power outage from First Energy on Wednesday afternoon amid dangerously high temperatures.

According to the post, First Energy is working to install two new poles, one in Lakewood and one on Rocky River Drive near St. Joseph Academy.

“This work is being done to bolster the electrical grid, which is being strained by heavy use due to high temperatures, and to avoid widespread and long-lasting outages,” the post said.
Slife emphasizes that Wednesday’s outages are temporary and intentional.

The outages are expected to impact the northern half of Ward 15 and may last up to an hour.
Slife said he would provide more details when available.

Jacob deGrom pitched seven strong innings and the Texas Rangers took advantage of a bone-headed play by Cleveland rookie outfielder Cooper Ingle on Tuesday night to beat the Guardians 4-2 and extend their winning streak to six games.
DeGrom (7-5) allowed a two-run homer to Kyle Manzardo in the first before turning dominant. The right-hander gave up a leadoff single in the second before retiring 18 of the next 19 batters, improving to 4-0 in June.
Joc Pederson hit a two-run homer and Josh Jung added a solo shot as the AL West-leading Rangers improved to 7-2 on their road trip.
They got a big assist in the seventh inning when Ingle, making just his second major league start in the outfield, lost track of the number of outs and tossed a live ball into the stands, allowing the Rangers to take a 3-2 lead.
With a runner at second and one out, Ingle caught a routine fly ball hit by Rangers left fielder Alejandro Osuna for the second out. Thinking it was the third out, Ingle looked at the ball in his glove before throwing it over the protective netting to fans.
The umpires immediately ruled the ball was dead, and Ezequiel Duran was awarded home plate.
Pederson connected for his 14th homer — and 11th since May 26 — off Tanner Bibee (2-9) to tie it 2-all in the third.
Jung’s ninth homer made it 4-2 in the eighth.
Manzardo gave the Guardians a 2-0 lead in the first with his 10th homer.
Rangers shortstop Corey Seager was pulled before his at-bat in the first inning because of back discomfort. The five-time All-Star missed 19 games earlier this season with back spasms.
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – Thousands of FirstEnergy and Cleveland Public Power customers are without power in the city of Cleveland.
Check CPP’s and FirstEnergy’s websites for the latest information on the outages.
As temperatures remain at extreme levels, Cleveland Public Power is responding to isolated service interruptions caused by equipment working harder during periods of sustained high demand.

The outages are mostly located from downtown Cleveland to the westside.
19 News has reached out to Cleveland Public Power and FirstEnergy for more information on the outages but have yet to hear back.
