June 26, 2023

Entergy Mississippi assessment, restoration underway following severe weathernEntergy Mississippi crews, contractors, tree trimmers and scouts are working diligently to restore power to more than 25,000 customers after Sunday night’s severe weather system brought extreme lighting and winds, some over 70 mph. This latest storm comes just days after crews completed restoration for more than 240,000 customers after a series of storms wreaked havoc on the power grid for more than a week. A large portion of our service territory, including the Delta and central Mississippi, has again sustained significant damage from last night’s weather.

An open letter to our customers

Haley Fisackerly, president and CEO, Entergy Mississippi addresses storm recoverynOver more than a week, Entergy Mississippi and our customers experienced an unprecedented series of severe storms, tornados and unusually high winds that caused the largest outage in our service area since Hurricane Katrina. This event saw scores of fast-moving storm cells with 80+ mph winds cutting a widespread path through our entire service area. This treacherous weather also came day-after-day, sometimes through the same areas repeatedly. The damage was so extensive that our power grid lost half as many poles, wires and transformers in one week as we lost from all storms in 2020, which was one of our worst storm years in recent history with four hurricanes and two tropical storms.
