Tupelo, MS – Crews with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) are continuing restoration efforts across North Mississippi as they work to repair the final high-voltage transmission lines damaged by last week’s winter storm.
According to TVA, teams have restored 26 customer delivery points since the severe weather began, coordinating with local power companies to bring electricity back to affected communities. Helicopter crews were seen repairing damaged towers and lines Monday as ice-covered hills and valleys made ground access difficult.
The National Weather Service in Memphis has issued a dense freezing fog advisory for parts of the Mid-South tonight, warning that visibility could drop below a quarter-mile in some areas. The conditions could complicate ongoing power restoration efforts and make travel hazardous for residents and repair crews.
TVA continues to monitor the situation closely and urges residents to follow local outage updates and safety notices as conditions evolve.
