TOLEDO, Ohio -

Around midday on Monday, strong winds toppled some bricks off of the Old Caesar's Show Bar, down onto Jefferson Street.

The road has since been closed, between Erie and Ontario streets.

City officials tell us that a building inspector has been through the building, and while there is no imminent danger, the road will remain closed until winds die down and debris can be removed.

Winds gusted to 52 mph in Sandusky, and to 47 mph at the Toledo Executive Airport.

Assumption in Fulton County also had a gust of 47 mph.

Around midday, there were more than 300 power outages in northwest Ohio, but First Energy / Toledo Edison indicates that this evening, fewer than 30 power outages remain.
