entergy has restored more than 200,000 outages caused by multiple landfalls harvey made since its arrival one week ago. the storm has now caused outages in all of our service territories with its sweep through arkansas and mississippi over the last 24 hours.
flooding is significantly impacting entergy's ability to restore power to customers in some areas. several substations, which distribute electric service to many customers over large areas, are experiencing outages due to flooding. restoration of these locations is also being hampered as workers are unable to access these areas. when flood waters recede and it is safe to do so, entergy workers will assess damage and begin restoration of these assets.
