storm restoration process

  • following a storm, we deploy scouts to assess damage. our scouts work as quickly and safely as possible in sometimes very dangerous conditions. as damages are assessed, we will communicate with you the conditions found along with an estimated restoration time and our progress toward restoring your power. we ask for your patience, and please know restoring your power safely and quickly is our top priority.
  • as we assess the damage, we will begin restoring service where it is deemed safe to do so.

stay informed

we continuously keep our communities informed throughout a storm using the following channels:

your preparation is essential too:

  • above all stay safe. a personal plan for you and your family is the best way to stay safe and be storm ready.
  • visit the entergy storm center website for planning tools that can help guide you through the decisions you need to make.
  • whether you shelter in place or evacuate, you should make preparations to protect your home.
    • decide to stay or go well before the storm strikes.
    • basic emergency supplies and a first aid kit are key items to keep on hand during severe weather.
    • visit the entergy storm center website in advance for details on how to prepare for hurricanes and other types of storms.
