Still no power at cleary and west metairie. There were five entergy trucks on my street today for a couple of hours. I'm not sure they were doing there, but it obviously didnt include getting power to my house.

I never lost power in the channel, but for the ones that did, it's been coming on slowly but surely all day long...

Any updates on power restoration in Old Metairie? Specifically near Bonnabel and Codifer...

So much for the perks of living in an affluent neighborhood.

I can't take another night of this shite. The heat and humidity were offensive last night and there was zero breeze.

Carrolton both sides to Jeanette is on.
St. Charles riverside from around Henry Clay to Carrolton is on.
The Black Pearl looks to be fully on. (notracist)
The area around Clancy's seemed to be on.
I'm still out, came on for maybe 10 minutes last night then went off.

We must be neighbors. Happened to me but felt like about 2 minutes. I'm at Laurel and Octavia (Laurel Street Bakery) and still no power.

Just by looking at the map, that whole area is still dead. Probably has something to do with the huge power pole laying across Bonnabel at St. Catherine. Would have thought they would have moved that pretty quick, but according to Entergy, that was not a priority.

I don't think they are updating the map. I now have power at my house, but the map shows that I don't

Where do you live?

And yeah, the map is terrible. Updates maybe once a day.

My place is by Clancys. We got power for 5 minutes around 8 last night but a transformer outside blew up like a firework. We called it in. The saga continues. In BR for the rest of the weekend. Post if this area gets power back.
