a large line of severe thunderstorms with straight-line winds passed through arkansas late sunday evening april 12 causing more than 128,000 customer outages across the state. the heaviest area of impact was south of interstate i-40. additional resources have helped with the restoration. restoration has been slower than normal due to covid-19 social distancing requirements. we have restored power to about 95% of the 128,000 customers who lost power in the easter sunday storms. with a team of 3,308 workers tackling the most difficult repairs today, we expect to get all or nearly all the remaining outages restored between now and 10:00 tonight. please refer to the outage map for your specific location.
should you have structural damages and/or damages to your electrical service connection equipment, please ensure all repairs and any required inspections are completed as soon as possible to avoid any further service delays.

as with any weather event, please be mindful of the following safety tips:
- live wires can be deadly. stay away from downed power lines. call 1-800-9outage or 1-800-968-8243 to report downed or dangling power lines, poles or other damaged equipment.
- do not trim trees or remove debris on or near downed power lines. only power company crews or their contractors should remove trees or limbs touching power lines.
- keep away from the immediate areas where crews are working. there is always the danger of moving equipment and the possibility of construction materials or limbs or overhead wires falling to the ground.
- if you plan on using a generator for temporary power, get a licensed electrician and disconnect from the utility electric system before hooking up to your main electric panel.
- do not run a generator in a confined space without adequate ventilation.
- turn off any electrical appliances that can easily be turned to the off position until power is restored.
