We thank you for your patience while we restored over 18,500 customers who lost power as a result of the thunderstorms with high winds, heavy rain and lightning that moved through the Entergy Mississippi service territory Sunday night through Tuesday afternoon. At its peak, the highest count of outages occurred Monday morning totaling 8,689. Damages occurred to more than 80 poles and nearly 75,000 feet of downed power lines.

Restoration is complete and electrical power has been restored to all customers affected by that storm who can safely receive power. If your power is not restored, please check for damage to the electrical equipment attached to your home or business. If your electrical equipment sustained damage, these items must be repaired by a qualified electrician before Entergy can restore power. Permits may be required. Learn more about the electrical equipment that serves your home.

Customers should always stay away from downed lines and report them immediately by calling 1-800-9OUTAGE, 1-800-968-8243, and your local police station or fire department.

If you power is out and your electric equipment appears undamaged, please call 1-800-9OUTAGE, 1-800-968-8243. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and again appreciate your patience and cooperation as crews safely restored power after this weather event. Thank you also for being a valued Entergy Mississippi customer.
