Pam Assemany and her husband live in rural Atlanta.
They haven't had power for 18 days. At the height of the storm, so many trees had fallen in their neighborhood they couldn't get out of their for days.
The couple has been using a small generator to run appliances and kept their house warm with a wood-burning stove.
But on Tuesday morning, utility trucks made their way back to their house in the woods near Rush Lake.
Assemany described the scene outside of her home.
"There pulling in the driveway...six...my husband says six trucks are back there and their up on the pole putting a new pole in and a new transformer because that just broke and flipped."
The Presque Isle Electric and Gas Co-op says around 90-percent of their members have their power back after the storm knocked out nearly its entirely coverage area.
Co-op leaders say it's still going to take a few days to get 100-percent of their members in some of the most rural areas back online.
