Sunday's storms caused power outages to Newport on the Levee and closed the Newport Aquarium for the day, according to our partners at WCPO.
Newport on the Levee lost power, but it has since been restored and has reopened.
UPDATE: Power is BACK ON, everyone will be open today except for @NewportAquarium . Thank you @DukeEnergy for getting the power back on!

The Newport Aquarium also lost power this morning, and backup generators are working so the animals are safe, but it will be closed for today until their power is fully restored.
Newport Aquarium is CLOSED for the day due to a power outage. All backup generators are working and our animals are safe.
