I’ve seen less outages after a hurricane. Looking forward to the excuse for this one.

I wonder if it is another AT&T pole, good luck getting it fixed. CWA workers are on strike unless the strike was resolved.

NOLA's power grid is like Rwanda and Somalia so this should come as no surprise. It's more likely a miracle the town keeps power as much as they do.

Don’t forget the restoration fees

I’m convinced they do rolling blackouts and don’t announce it, then blame it on some nonsense like a Mylar balloon.

Saw them on poydras yesterday afternoon.

Had no idea who they were, what they wanted or how it would affect me. Seemed not ideal.

I would definitely take random power outages, car jacking and corrupt mayor for all the history, culture, music and food available to you.

Entergy response, Don't worry, we are on top of it and committed to restoring your power back soon.
