Leyla Goodsell — Tue, 21 Apr 2020 04:12:00 +0000

Entergy Mississippi crews have restored service to nearly 41,000 customers who lost power during storms that struck our service area on Sunday, April 12. Entergy’s grid sustained considerable damage, mostly north of a line from Yazoo City to Kosciusko, and several communities were without power for nearly a week. Damage included more than 427 broken poles, 890 spans of wire down, and damage to 94 transformers. More than 1,150 field workers, contractors and support staff assisted with our restoration efforts. All customers affected by this storm who can safely accept electrical service have been restored.

Except for a handful of especially difficult remaining repairs, which should be completed today, we have restored power to all of the 128,000 customers who lost power in the Easter Sunday storms. We want to thank each and every customer for bearing with us through this long and arduous process. Many patiently and quietly waited for power to return. Many made a special effort to express appreciation to our dedicated workers, either in person, by making roadside thank-you signs, by sharing gratitude and support on Facebook and Twitter, or by reaching out through other means.
