Yea, same thing happened here (Kenilworth near Highland). Hopeful it stays this way, makes hurricanes much more bearable

Our lights went out for about 20 minutes here in Dutchtown and then came back on. I know that there are no linemen working in the storm so I wonder how they came back on. Anyone know how this happened?

Lost power off Jefferson about 1hour ago, damn tree fell on the lines. I don't think its coming back anytime soon.

I went down 45 minutes this morning. Entergy truck came out 30 minutes of reporting outage. Back on in 15 minutes after repair arrival. This was earlier this morning and I was pleasantly surprised with the response. Kudos ETR! Stock pays decent dividend too.

I wont judge them on how long we go before we lose power
Im more worried about how long itll be before they fix it

Usually we will try to do switching in the substation to route power through an alternate feeder to give power if possible.

I will look and see what I can find out. I moved out of Louisiana some years ago, and Louisiana runs a different program so i can't get into the LA database, but I should be able to see if it's out. If you call the 1800Entergy they can tell you more than I can because they'll have access to your feeder, but now it will be a pain to wait on the 1809#
Thanks!
