John Craft from Georgia Power's public relations office in Atlanta reported that a tree fell on a power line this morning, knocking out several areas at once.
"Once they had the tree cleared, they were able to restore power to that large group of customers pretty quickly," he said.
The outage lasted around 30 minutes and included the Redmond Circle and Road area along with Armuchee, he said.
Craft said a few customers might still be experiencing an outage, but that it was unlikely related to this morning's outage.
NGEMC services all the handle at the top of the county, but it's still a small percentage of Floyd, especially considering the low population density. Still, it's significant if you live there.
