Winter weather impacts: understanding significant ice accumulation
When a massive winter weather event hits an area more familiar with tropical temperatures, thunderstorms and tornadoes, the impacts are often hard to fathom. The recent storm that swept through Entergy’s service territory – disrupting electrical service for approximately 171,200 Entergy customers – brought with it significant ice accumulation and extreme challenges that have slowed our restoration efforts.
Helping customers through winter storm
We know how important electric service is to our customers, especially during the bitter cold brought by the recent winter storm. If you’re without power, we understand how difficult this is, and we’re working as safely and quickly as possible to restore service to everyone who can safely take power. If you do have power, please consider taking steps to reduce electric usage to save money during this period of extreme cold — every little bit helps.
