It's a safe bet to say that these stations had some damage done or may not even have power after last night's storms. We got hit hard over this way too.mrradiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12676971582004962655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13975530.post-79539546784363104792008-09-15T18:09:00.000-04:002008-09-15T18:09:00.000-04:00For reference, we did manage to hit Streetsboro th...For reference, we did manage to hit Streetsboro this afternoon, and despite nearly all of that Portage County city being without power...<BR/><BR/>Sonic was open, and busy!<BR/><BR/>Pretty much anything east of the Sonic/Chipotle/Wal-Mart development was in the dark...but Sonic was open on its first day (and presumably still is).<BR/><BR/>Chili-cheese dog full,<BR/>-The ManagementOhio Media Watchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07003503894299610300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13975530.post-28004692971442049802008-09-15T12:57:00.000-04:002008-09-15T12:57:00.000-04:00Hang in there, Wayne...Streetsboro is one of the a...Hang in there, Wayne...Streetsboro is one of the areas hit hard with power outages from the Remnants of Ike, and we saw video on Channel 3 at noon of police directing traffic not far from the Sonic location, due to traffic lights being out.<BR/><BR/>So, there's no guarantee they made their scheduled opening today. If you want to chance it, it's on Rt. 14 a short distance from the I-480/Turnpike interchange, in front of the new Wal-Mart Super Center (across from the Sheetz).<BR/><BR/>To keep ourselves semi-on-topic here, the power outages knocked WNIR/100.1 off the air last night - sort of. Their transmitter was actually still on, but there was no programming or audio.<BR/><BR/>I'm assuming that they did not lose power at the transmitter site (Rt. 43 near I-76 in Brimfield), but did at the studio (Rt. 59 in Franklin Township). It's the first time I've ever heard that combo...usually they lose both!<BR/><BR/>-The ManagementOhio Media Watchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07003503894299610300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13975530.post-13982093620800003072008-09-15T12:39:00.000-04:002008-09-15T12:39:00.000-04:00Whoo-hoo!!!
