Largest single-county outage on record: ~223,470 customers out in Cuyahoga County in August 2024, restored after about 7 days.
Months that hit the widest area at once — these rank among the three largest outages ever recorded in the most counties: June 2022 (21 counties), September 2020 (21 counties) and March 2023 (15 counties).
Where restoration has historically taken longest: Cuyahoga County (~9.3 hr typical), Franklin County (~8.5 hr typical) and Hamilton County (~5 hr typical) — against ~3.3 hr statewide.

historical records, not outages tracked live by this site. Statewide figures aggregate the same per-county records shown on each county page below;
the statewide restoration figure is the typical (middle) value across the per-county typical times, weighted by how many records each county has. A county appears in a “widest area” month when that month
produced one of its three largest recorded outages.
