Cleveland-Hopkins Airport diverting flights due to high winds.

(Marvin Fong, The Plain Dealer)

CLEVELAND, Ohio -- Strong winds up to 60 mph are battering Northeast Ohio, downing power lines and trees. Now the winds are affecting air travel.

Airlines are diverting flights from Cleveland Hopkins International Airport to other airports, including Pittsburgh, because wind gusts that fast create dangerous landing conditions. According to a spokeswoman, whether or not a specific flight will be diverted is up to the airline, and the pilot -- but you can check any flight status here.

So far Akron-Canton Airport is reporting all arriving flights are scheduled on time, even though winds are currently gusting up to 45 mph.

Latest sustained wind speed analysis.

About 141,000 households in Northeast Ohio are now without power, according to FirstEnergy.
