please continue taking voluntary conservation efforts, as we weather this extreme winter week.
entergy has initiated additional power outages for its customers across its four-state service area. the company is taking this action as directed by our reliability coordinator, the midcontinent independent system operator, as a last resort and in order to prevent more extensive, prolonged power outages that could severely affect the reliability of the power grid.
more ice, sleet and snow could be arriving in arkansas. be prepared - again!
