NATCHEZ — Most Miss-Lou residents should have power by the end of the day Thursday, power company officials said.

The outages were caused by tree limbs breaking following Tuesday night’s ice event, though some were the result of power companies taking some grids offline in order to make repairs, Adams County Emergency Management Director Stan Owens said.

Entergy Mississippi Spokesman Tim Runnels said Wednesday evening electrical service had been restored to 1,350 Entergy customers in the Adams County area, while 1,650 remained without power.

A spokesperson for Southwest Mississippi Electric Power Association said approximately 900 SWEPA customers were without electricity Wednesday evening, down from 1,300 earlier in the day.

SWEPA customers can also expect service to be restored by tomorrow, the spokesperson said.
