Another brutally cold night is in store. Bundle up and conserve power, if you can.
Entergy Texas makes progress towards restoring most customers by end of day (2/18).
Entergy’s Louisiana storm team, now 3,600 strong, is continuing to assess damages to the electric system and restore power where it is safe to do so. Multiple winter storms brought damaging freezing rain and ice to the state.
A mix of ice and snow continues pushing through our service territory, causing new power outages for our customers in Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas.
Entergy Texas expects most customers to be restored by end of day, Thursday (2/18).
As of 7:30 a.m., nearly 90,000 customers are without power. We currently have 49 substation circuit breakers out of service.
As a result of customer conservation, the system was successfully able to avoid mandatory outages. Keep up the good work!
As of 8 pm, there are approximately 19,380 customers without power, down from 33,657 at 3 p.m.
