crews have restored power to more than 77% of customers within 12 hours of the storm’s initial impact
severe rainstorms and strong winds caused widespread outages across the entergy texas service area wednesday morning. crews are working around the clock to turn the lights back on-- restoring power to more than 77% of customers within 12 hours of the storm’s initial impact.
as of 4:30 p.m., approximately 5,893 customers are without power, a significant decrease from the 26,125 customers without power around 7 a.m. wednesday. most customers are expected to be fully restored before the end of day, but customers in the hardest hit areas could experience extended outages.
while damage assessments are still underway, lineworkers have identified downed trees and significant flooding in parts of our service area. estimated restoration times may change as damage assessments are completed or if there are any additional weather impacts.
customers are encouraged to visit entergy’s view outage map for the most up-to-date information and estimated restoration times.
stay safe:
we urge customers to use caution after the storm and remember these important safety tips:
- stay away from downed power lines and areas of debris. energized power lines may not be visible among the rubble. report downed lines immediately to entergy at 1-800-9outage (1-800-968-8243), and call your local police station or fire department.
- return home only when authorities advise and drive only on roadways and bridges that have been declared passable.
- if a power line falls on your vehicle while driving, continue to drive away from the line.
- don’t walk in flooded areas or standing water. remember that wet tree limbs can conduct electricity.
- keep your distance from working crews. work sites can have any number of hidden dangers for the public, and distracting crews can cause accidents to happen.
