Entergy Louisiana’s storm team continues assessing damage and restoring power following a significant January winter storm that brought freezing temperatures, ice accumulation and hazardous conditions across Entergy’s Louisiana service territory.
As of 6 p.m., there were approximately 86,000 customer outages across the Entergy Louisiana service territory. Crews have begun restoring power where it is safe to do so but continued icy road conditions may delay teams from safely traveling to restore power.
As of 7 a.m., approximately 53,345 customers across Entergy Louisiana’s service area are without power as a result of winter weather impacting the region. Ice accumulation, freezing temperatures and hazardous road conditions make restoration efforts challenging by slowing access to damaged equipment and creating unsafe working conditions.
Winter weather has arrived across our service area, bringing snow, ice and freezing rain. Forecasts call for below-freezing temperatures to last for several days into early next week, with more than a half-inch of ice possible in some areas.
As winter weather is expected to impact our region, Entergy continues to take proactive steps to support customer safety and system reliability. We have secured approximately 750 additional resources and are actively preparing our teams and infrastructure to respond quickly to potential impacts.
Entergy Louisiana and Entergy New Orleans continue to actively monitor the frigid temperatures and winter precipitation expected to move through the region this weekend. While forecasts are continually changing and the exact impact to the Louisiana service area is hard to predict, crews are prepared to respond to whatever Mother Nature delivers.
