Entergy GridEx: Planning for the worst-case scenarios, and then some

Entergy team members train for, and have been through, some of the worst disasters to impact the communities we serve. Hurricanes, tornadoes and winter ice storms are often described as “having a mind of their own,” but advanced planning and training makes the overall response as immediate and efficient as possible.

Entergy prepared for colder months ahead

As hurricane season came to an official end on the last day of November, cooler temps are just starting to arrive, with colder weather expected over the holidays and into the new year. Even if we live or work where extremely cold temperatures are not persistent, it's still important to be prepared for freezing and inclement weather. As we know, cold snaps can happen without much warning.
