The South Bend and Elkhart metro areas were spared the worst of the storms, yesterday, but not all of Michiana can say the same.

As much as 4.5 inches of rain fell in portions of Berrien County in less than three hours.

Wind gusts near 70 miles per hour caused some power lines to snap, cutting electricity to as many as 6,000 Indiana Michigan Power customers at the height of the outages.

Most of the outages were reported in the Three Rivers area.

Outages:

Indiana: 1,746

• Elkhart area: 1,598
• South Bend area: < 10
• Fort Wayne: 70

Michigan: 4,346

• Three Rivers area: 2,892
• Benton Harbor area: 1113
• Buchanan: < 50

Crews have been working to restore the power since the storms ended last night. At 5 a.m. on Wednesday, fewer than 800 I&M customers were still without electricity.
