As part of its ongoing efforts to help customers with the greatest need, Entergy Arkansas announced Wednesday a $50,000 donation to the Arkansas Community Action Agencies Association, which manages the federally funded Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program from 14 locations across the state that covers 74 counties. n nThe dollars will be used to purchase personal protection equipment, plexiglass or other contact barriers, office equipment and other supplies that will expedite processing for customers, who are anticipated by Entergy Arkansas to qualify and participate at greater numbers due to the COVID-19 pandemic.n

There’s no question that we are living in uncertain times. While our state moves forward with a phased approach to reopening the economy, we are here to lend a helping hand to our customers as they work to get back on their feet.

Entergy Mississippi has restored power to more than 9,000 customers, down from a peak of 12,874 outages caused by Tropical Storm Cristobal. Cristobal’s remnants could also result in additional outages and damages to our electrical grid as it continues moving northward out of our service area. We expect most customers to be restored late tonight, though some customer outages in Attala, Grenada, Hinds, Madison and Washington counties may carry over to tomorrow. Estimated restoration times by address and specific information by county are available on ourView Outagespage.

A line of thunderstorms caused widespread power outages for more than 15,000 customers throughout our service area late Friday, June 5. As of 3 p.m., Entergy Mississippi crews have restored power for more than 12,600 customers. The majority of those customers still without power are in Grenada, Hinds and Tallahatchie counties with scattered trouble in the other counties. Entergy resource workers continue to restore power as safely and quickly as possible. We have also brought in additional resources assist with restoration efforts.

Hurricane season starts June 1 and with predictions of major activity, Entergy’s Louisiana companies want to be sure you are prepared.
