I have CobbEMC Power and they are reporting less than 100 people without so far. They are fixing issues as they arise and are on standby which is awesome


Damn, I live just across the Chattahoochee in Fulton. Think they'd venture on over to Riverside if my power goes out?

Seems like it started earlier, to me. Maybe 04.00?


Yeah, that's just when I woke up and heard it. From the amounts on the ground I bet it did start at 4 or earlier.

So far so good on power here. Feeling like I'm on borrowed time

Not far from us. We've got a sheet of ice topped with a half inch of snow/sleet blend.

Just took a walk in Brookhaven…about 1/4 inch of ice starting to harden. With another 8 hours of snow/wintery mix on the way.

Sleet has started again, and is stronger than this morning (probably what is was like just before dawn).

The ground is completely white with 1-2", mostly sleet. It's coming down really heavy now. Sleet bouncing off the tree limbs instead of sticking I hope.

It looks like Raleigh wins the "Atlanta" award. Big time traffic issues.

Over 200,000 power outages in SC.
