The March 24 tornadoes that flattened parts of the Mississippi Delta changed the community forever. Responding to the storm’s aftermath also presented Entergy Mississippi crews with unique challenges and opportunities in the small city of Rolling Fork. The EF-4 tornado destroyed nearly300 homesthat Friday night, and more than 700 service and secondary poles.
