February 12, 2014, Riverdale: A bundled-up Riverdale family huddles around a laptop after the second winter storm of 2014 took out power to their neighborhood, leaving them without lights or heat. Heavy ice accumulation from the storm took down trees and powerlines across the state.

The family had been without power since 2pm, but was using boiling water on the stove to keep warm and candles and flashlights to see. They also had other family members staying with them who had left their Fayetteville home earlier in the day when their power went out. BEN GRAY / BGRAY@AJC.COM
