The Cass County Communications Center said power has been restored to at least a section of the downtown area, and the street light signals are functioning. Still, you are advised to drive with caution, as there is tree limb and other debris on the roads that may be difficult to see at night.

Atlantic Municipal Utilities had reported earlier, power was out to an estimated 300-400 households and/or businesses in town, and for a time, the Cass County Communications Center and courthouse radio building were running on an emergency generator.

AMU crews are still working to restore power to those areas affected by an outage due to the storm that struck at around 8-p.m. Winds gusted up to 60-miles per hour in Atlantic as the front pushed through, taking down large tree limbs and power lines, including two AMU feeder lines.
