 There are still more than 26,000 Xcel Energy customers without power this morning, this after a round of severe storms swept through the region early Sunday morning. There was a tornado that spun up briefly near Rice County. At the height of the storm, there were about 75,000 Twin Cities Xcel customers without lights. Xcel Energy says power should be restored by tonight, with some work continuing into tomorrow. By the way, there is severe weather moving across western Minnesota right now.
