At least three people died as a result of the storm, including a Dunwoody man killed when a tree fell on his house as he slept and a Forsyth County woman killed when a tree fell on her car. “All things considered, I’m just thankful no one got hurt,” said Dunwoody resident Ken Burnett as he surveyed damage from a 60-foot sweet gum tree that crashed into his mailbox, taking nearby power lines down with it. “It’s going to be a hell of a cleanup.”September 11, 2017 Atlanta: A sleeping Sandy Springs man died Monday after a tree crashed through his home.?

A massive tree fell near his house, taking out power lines and poles up and down his dead-end street in unincorporated DeKalb’s Eastland Heights neighborhood. His car was stranded behind it.Officials said the county was hardest hit in metro Atlanta Traffic was heavy on metro streets as many returned to work, though some roads remained closed, forcing drivers and MARTA buses to find alternate routes.

Southbound lanes of interstates were packed with Irma evacuees eager to return home, though officials warned it was too soon.
