nearly all customers restored after hurricane beryl caused widespread outages across southeast texas

the majority of entergy texas customers have been restored after hurricane-force winds and heavy rain from hurricane beryl caused widespread outages across southeast texas. as of 9:30 a.m. tuesday, approximately 248,000 of the 252,460 customers impacted have been restored. all customers who can safely take power are expected to be restored before the end of day today.
