Power outages across Hall County sent residents scrambling Tuesday morning for generators, food and other essentials to make it through the storm’s aftermath. But it was slim pickings at some local stores following a mad dash for supplies in the days leading up to the ice storm. The Home Depot on Dawsonville Highway quickly sold out of ice melt, generators and space heaters, according to manager Reece Gilmer, while a little firewood and a handful of chain saws were still available.
