WooHoo! I have electricity again. My power went out Friday night around 9:30/10 and it finally came back on Saturday evening round 11 or so. I slept through most the storm Friday night, and only after I woke up Saturday did I realize how lucky I was. My immediate neighborhood is untouched, but less than a mile away trees are down, power lines are down, debris everywhere.
East Atlanta seems hit pretty hard, all down Glenwood and Flat Shoals there are trees down. It is really sad seeing the huge oak trees finished. I keep seeing the news about Cabbage Town, and Downtown, but nothing about our area, kind of odd. It seems weird to imagine I slept through a tornado, and the cats as well, but they must have known all would be ok. Normally the cats freak out at thunder, and they were pretty calm.
I am pretty impressed with how quick the crews from Georgia Power were in out working and cleaning up, it really is amazing. Hopefully I can snap a picture or two on the way to work of some of the trees.
