entergy arkansas storm update – 9/1/21 @ 8:30 p.m.
09/01/2021
storms bringing heavy winds of up to 40 mph in some areas have moved through the southwestern and southern portions of arkansas, causing widespread power outages.
as of 8:30 p.m. about 4,600 customers were without power, with the bulk of the outages in garland county, ashley county, dallas county and in hempstead county.
entergy personnel are working to restore service as quickly and safely as possible. for more information, visit the outage page at www.entergy.com/viewoutages.
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.
- 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.
