Cobb County government is saying Saturday night that thunderstorms that came through late this afternoon have left some roads blocked by trees.
Those roads include portions of Old Canton Road, Post Oak Tritt Road, Bill Murdock Road, Casteel Road and Bishop Lake Road.
A message sent out by the county around 7:30 p.m. Saturday wasn’t more specific, except to say that it was responding to at least two dozen calls, and likely more, around Cobb.
The county said Cobb police and fire/rescue crews that have responded thus far haven’t reported any injuries.
Cobb EMC is updating its power outage map (see above), which as of 8:30 p.m. included some locations in East Cobb. The biggest cluster was in the Terrell Mill/Powers Ferry area, with nearly 500 outages reported.
More than 200 outages were reported in an area around Lower Roswell Road and the South Marietta Parkway, around 30 off Canton Road near Morgan Road, and 20 or so off Lower Roswell, east of Johnson Ferry Road.
Georgia Power showed some outages on its map around the Noonday area, also around 8:30 p.m. Saturday.
