Icy roads, power outages continue to cripple parts of Hall County

For a second day, people in Hall County woke up to a blanket of snow. In one pocket of the community, people woke up for a second day with no electricity.

“We knew this was coming so we were able to prepare,” said Amanda Holtzclaw.

She and her family spent the night bundled up in blankets in their home trying to stay warm. Holtzclaw said she’s glad they bought groceries ahead of Winter Storm Izzy.

“We have like ten packs of bread and a bunch of peanut and jelly,” she said.

Down the street, her neighbor John Baker was also prepared for the power outage. He used a generator to power his refrigerator, freezer, microwave oven, and television.
