Sunday’s high winds resulted in more than 300 calls to 911 and caused more than 420 Harford County residents to lose power. Wind speeds across the region reached around 60 mph Sunday causing property damage, fallen trees, downed power lines and more.

As of Tuesday afternoon, Baltimore Gas and Electric’s website said 79 county residents were still without power and county officials say three roads were closed due to downed power lines.

The closures of Choate, Hillendale and Phillips Mill roads accounted for a fraction of the 87 traffic hazards reported to the Harford County Sheriff’s Office Sunday, the county said.

According to the Harford County Department of Emergency Services, between 4 and 5 p.m. Sunday, nearly 200 calls were made to 911 call centers across the county. From 5 to 6 p.m, another 107 calls were made.

The county’s public information officer, Matt Button, said the Department of Emergency Services worked with the National Weather Service, volunteer fire companies, local utilities and public works to prepare for wind damage.

The Department of Emergency Services activated its Emergency Operations Center during the high winds Sunday evening to monitor calls for service, coordinate assistance with utility and road crews, and communicate with departments in the county and its municipalities.

Officials said crews with the Harford County Department of Public Works responded to more than 30 reports of downed trees Sunday into Monday. Crews are continuing cleanup efforts for fallen trees, branches and powerlines throughout the county.

Of BGE’s 1.3 million Maryland customers, just over 1,000 had no power at 12:53 p.m. Tuesday, according to data on the company’s outage tracker.
