South Holland Power Outages Caused by Weather

Events

August 10, 2020 - Thunderstorm Wind

A corridor of significant straight line wind damage occurred from Harvey east to Calumet City. Numerous trees were uprooted and snapped along this corridor. Some roofs were damaged by falling trees; other roofs suffered minor shingle damage from the strong winds. Some of the worst damage was in Harvey in an area between Sibley Boulevard to the north and 159th Street to the south. Trees were snapped and uprooted and extensive damage occurred to utility poles and power lines, resulting in some portions of the power grid needing to be completely rebuilt. Almost everyone in Harvey lost power. An estimated 300 to 350 trees were blown down in Harvey. Almost every road in Harvey was blocked by some amount of tree damage. Significant tree damage was reported in forest preserve areas including in the Shabonna Woods Forest Preserve. Damage was consistent with wind speeds up to 90 mph.||One day later, on August 11th, just after noon, a 59 year old man was walking in the 15000 block of Merrill Avenue in unincorporated Thornton Township near Calumet City. He stepped on a downed power line that was live and collapsed in a grassy area where he died.
