Every completed forecast is compared with when power actually returned. As of Aug 19, 7,878 completed outages have been graded this way — median error 2 hours across the most recent 600 of them (about 1.9 days), and we publish the misses.

How do I report a power outage in Rocky River, OH?

Report it to your electric utility — crews are dispatched from customer reports. Utilities tracked in Cuyahoga County include Cleveland Public Power, FirstEnergy; confirm your own provider, then use its outage line or website. Reporting a downed line helps crews find the fault faster. In a life-threatening emergency, call 911.

Does this page show Rocky River specifically, or the whole county?

Both, and for Rocky River we have the city-level view: FirstEnergy has published outages for Rocky River under its own name, most recently seen on 2026-08-17. When Rocky River is affected, you get its own customers-out count and restoration time, with the Cuyahoga County county-wide total shown separately as context. Don't add the two together — the county figure already includes Rocky River.

How accurate is the restoration estimate?

Every estimate is later graded against when the tracked outage was substantially restored (~90% of customers back), and the track record is published on our accuracy page. Estimates firm up a few hours into an outage once a steady restoration trend appears; very small outages are marked "too small to estimate" rather than guessed.
