Electricity is slowly being restored to customers across the state affected by the weekend’s winter weather.
A Georgia Power spokesperson says as of early this afternoon, it was down to around 25,000 customers still without electricity. The outages remain concentrated in the northeast Georgia region.
The Georgia Electric Membership Corporation says it has a little more than 20,000 customers still without power, down from 29,000 earlier this morning. Georgia EMC workers are focused on the hard-hit areas of Jackson and Madison counties, where two substations were affected by a transmission line problem. Officials say some customers may not get power restored until sometime Monday night.
