entergy arkansas storm update – 4/4/25, 6:30 p.m.
04/04/2025
entergy arkansas crews have responded to three rounds of severe weather since the evening of april 2 and more weather is headed our way. although outage numbers reached more than 27,000 customers across the state at its peak, entergy arkansas crews have promptly restored power to many more customer interruptions caused by this week’s cycle of severe weather, including two confirmed ef3 tornadoes. currently, approximately 3,300 customers remain without power due to the extent of the damage and the recurring storm conditions and lightning strikes that pause restoration efforts intermittently to keep our employees safe.
customers should be prepared for more outages and potential updates to restoration times as the weather forecast calls for more potential severe weather across the state including high winds, lightning, possible tornados, heavy rain and flooding through saturday evening. we understand the loss of power is inconvenient, but we appreciate your patience as our crews are working on your behalf in challenging conditions to safely restore power.
damage assessment is 90% complete. we continue to shift resources and special equipment to assist with restoration efforts in the hardest hit areas. damages as of noon today consist of approximately 250 broken poles, 382 spans of downed wire, 12 transmission structures and 85 transformers. as we continue to identify damaged equipment, restoration times will be updated accordingly. entergy arkansas strives to provide the most accurate information about outages. the best way to get information is via view outage on our website.
we want to remind you that travel may be hazardous due to local spectators and road debris. if you must travel, please exercise caution and stay informed on local weather updates customers with special needs or other circumstances are encouraged to plan for other accommodations in the event of an outage.
consistent with our commitment to powering life for our customers every day, our crews are using this opportunity to rebuild the system with thicker, stronger poles. in some cases, concrete poles are being used to improve system infrastructure and make it more resilient.
please remember, entergy restoration workers cannot restore power to a location with a damaged meter base, conduit or weather head (the metal pipe extending upward from the structure with electrical cables inside). these items must be repaired by a qualified electrician before our workers can restore power. learn more about the electrical equipment that serves your home.

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, damaged or downed 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. again, stay away from downed 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, 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. use them only outdoors, following all manufacturers’ safety guidelines.
- turn off any electrical appliances that can easily be turned to the off position until power is restored.
- check on seniors, who can be particularly susceptible to extreme temperatures.
- try to stay off the roads in affected areas. more traffic in bad weather leads to more accidents, including more injuries and fatalities as well as accidents that can damage electrical poles and other equipment, creating outages and impeding the ability of crews to access and repair damage and slowing restoration.
