Wow, we really got lucky in Kennesaw. Power stayed on the whole time and the worst we got was a small roof leak. Had to run out to Home Depot in the thick of it at 5pm yesterday and get some of that hardcore asphalt patch goop that you use for roofing emergencies. Climbed up into the attic and slathered that crud on.

Beach... I know it's also a hurricane magnet, but it doesn't flood every time it rains at least. Plus, not many Yankees.

Damn, that sucks! Glad you finally got your power back.

I am in SE Gwinnett too, but have Walton EMC servicing our house. We were MAYBE down for a total of 2 hours yesterday during 3 short outages. By 7 PM we were good to go with no issues since.
