Significant progress continues as crews work through challenging and dangerous conditions. Outages are down to approximately 50,000 customers, from a peak of 91,500. With improving, above-freezing temperatures, crews expect to make notable progress throughout the day today.

Entergy Mississippi is taking to the skies flying drones and helicopters up to 5,000 feet in the air—more than three times the height of the Empire State Building in New York City—to better help scan our region for damages, improving the speed in which we can restore power for our customers. These efforts are part of our team’s continued focus on restoring power after winter weather blanketed significant parts of our service territory with freezing rain and ice last weekend. 

Restoration is well underway as Entergy Louisiana crews continue making progress assessing damage and restoring power to customers impacted by severe winter weather.
