Almost one week after #HurricaneBeryl, we are nearing completion with more than 96% restored. We are now wrapping up the hardest hit areas of the storm. I visited multiple crews this morning in Shenandoah and River Plantation and there is a significant number of large trees that broke or fell and caused damage to homes, personal property and our electric infrastructure. Our crews are working safely and efficiently to get the job done. Entergy Texas appreciates the tremendous support and patience from our customers and communities.
