Entergy Mississippi has completed restoring power to all customers whose homes and businesses could safely receive power following this weekend’s deadly storms.
Tornadoes, lightning and high winds caused more than 45,000 power outages after the severe weather event Saturday night, and as of Thursday morning all have been restored.
In total, the storm damaged 13 transmission lines, two transmission towers, eight insulator assemblies, 209 distribution poles, 58 distribution transformers, and brought down more than 49 miles of wire.
Crews joined Entergy Mississippi internal teams to restore power as quickly and safely as possible, bringing the total workforce to more than 1,200 linemen, contractors, vegetation workers, damage assessors and support personnel.
