Verizon Wireless cell and data services are down on Wednesday morning in a widespread area throughout the Mid-Atlantic, including Ocean City.
The problem is reportedly related to Tuesday evening's storms and affects hundreds of thousands of customers throughout the region.
OCNJ Daily is waiting on a return message from a company spokesperson, and the Verizon Wireless website includes no readily available information on the outage.
Affected customers cannot make or receive calls, or use their data services. Check back for updates on when service might be restored.
