Severe weather that rolled through parts of north Georgia last night also affected operations at Atlanta’s airport. Hartsfield-Jackson International sustained a lightning strike to its air traffic control tower around 8:45pm, which added to flight delays. Soon after, the entire airport lost power. Officials say the tower was back in operation around 10pm, with all runways open by midnight. The severe weather in the region was responsible for a handful of lightning-strike fires, and a few thousand residents losing electricity for a time.
