There are still hundreds of people, mainly in Hunt County, who are dealing with power outages from the winter storm.
The doors are still open Saturday night as people nearby still don't have power.
For one Collin County couple, the power came on right before they spoke with FOX 4. They are hoping, it stays on.Their Farmersville home was without power since Wednesday evening, right as the winter storm rolled in."It feels great to have electricity again," David Bramlett said. "We are very tickled. Very thankful.""[Saturday] was our third day and I was very panicked," David said. Their home is starting to heat up again.
"They have a hard job and it’s so cold, and I appreciate everything they do," Anne Bramlett said. "I just wish they have a better system in place on whether a house does or does not have electricity."Oncor said Hunt County was the hardest hit due to road conditions and ice accumulation causing extensive tree damage. "We have a generator, so it was bearable, but then [Saturday[, I was just done," Brandi Smith said.
Back in Collin County, First Baptist Church in Farmersville has been serving hot meals since Wednesday. By Saturday, slowly but surely, families started to pack up and go home."They can get on tv and say all day long that they are really prepared for the possibility of this, but it didn’t work out in real life," David Bramlett added.
