#OUTAGEALERT The regional transmission organization that Entergy New Orleans is part of called MISO is shedding load in New Orleans. This is leading to the power outages, and unfortunately this was done with only a 3 minute notice to the utility and no notice to regulators.

⚠️ Over 100,000 Entergy customers across New Orleans, Jefferson Parish, and more are without power due to a “load shed” — a safety move to prevent grid overload, Entergy reps said. No clear restoration time yet. wwltv.com/article/news/local…
