Entergy Mississippi storm update – 4/6/25, 6:45 p.m.
04/06/2025
As of 6:45 p.m. this evening, significant progress has been made in restoring power to those customers impacted by the high winds, thunderstorms, lightning, and reported tornado activity that impacted the Entergy Mississippi service territory yesterday into early Sunday morning. Approximately 2,090 customers are without power, down from the peak of 14,483 that was reached at 4:30 a.m.
Approximately 800 resources including linemen, damage assessors, vegetation workers and support personnel are working to provide restoration for these customer outages.
Damage assessment is nearly complete, and we anticipate that some outages will extend beyond today, particularly in the more severely impacted areas. For updated estimated restoration times throughout the day, view our outage map at www.entergy.com/view-outages. These estimates are subject to change as damage assessment continues. We’ve identified damages to more than 50 poles, 25 transformers, 10 cross arms, and over 175 spans (over 48,000 feet) of downed wire.
Past drought conditions and weather events continue to make dead trees outside of the right-of-way a threat and a cause of many of these outages
Most customers that sustained outages from this event, who can safely receive power, have had power restored. However, due to more extensive damage, specialized equipment needs, and/or accessibility issues, restoration continues today and into tomorrow.
