MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Memphis Light Gas and Water (MLGW) said Wednesday that power has been restored to all customers who lost service during storms Sunday.
The utility said about 700,000 people across the south lost power during those storms on June 18, 2023, and 48,000 of those were MLGW customers.
MLGW said a non-storm-related outage impacted at least 2,000 more customers late Monday night, adding to the list of needed repairs. As of 4:45 p.m. Wednesday, the MLGW outage map showed 215 customers without power.
MLGW said its workers along with 21 additional contract crews were able to restore power.
Customers who are experiencing outages should also check their weatherheads. MLGW said damaged weatherheads must be repaired by a licensed electrician and then inspected by Code Enforcement before MLGW restoration crews can restore power.
MLGW customers can report electrical emergencies like downed power lines and gas leaks by calling 901-528-4465. Power outages can be reported through the My Account app or by calling 901-544-6500.
