Severe thunderstorms with high winds and heavy rain again moved through the Entergy Mississippi service territory last night and early morning resulting in widespread customer outages. The total number of Entergy Mississippi customers affected by this storm event is over 29,000 and over 24,900 have been restored, 85%.

Entergy Mississippi has successfully completed restoring power to all customers whose homes and businesses can safety take electricity following this week’s severe weather.

Approximately $5 billion in total savings for 2.3 million Entergy customers because of data center customer agreements in Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi.

Although lower temperatures in the colder months can increase electricity use and energy costs, Entergy Mississippi is committed to helping customers stay warm and save money throughout the winter with bill management tools and resources. The company’s online Bill Toolkit connects customers with energy-efficiency tips and resources, as well as information about bill management and financial assistance options.

Thank you. Thank you for your patience, your understanding and reaching out to help one another as severe winter weather impacted a large portion of our state.
