SWEPCO

Caddo Parish Sheriff's deputies, firefighters and volunteers had to rescue a woman Sunday after a large tree landed on her car trapping her inside the vehicle.

The storm that hit the immediate Arklatex area around 2:30 Sunday afternoon has left tens of thousands without power again exactly one month from the last storm

There were less than 3,000 SWEPCO customers without power at about 5:00 am this morning on Monday, June 26.

Granted there are some gaps in these reported times, but the progress is obvious from these notes.

At this writing at 3:45 am on Monday, May 15, SWEPCO is reporting 3,368 customers without power at this time.

SWEPCO's outage map shows that the hardest hit areas include those in West Shreveport, Greenwood and Bethany south to Panola to near DeBerry

The storms that slammed our area with heavy rain and high winds have downed a number of trees and power lines leaving thousands with no power.

For a number of Bossier Parish and a few Webster Parish SWEPCO customers, the electricity is out this morning.

Around 10:00 pm Tuesday night, April 12, another violent storm moved into the Arklatex leaving behind a huge path of destruction.

A Shreveport woman was arrested for defrauding SWEPCO of more than $5,000.

The storm that passed through our neck of the woods early this morning left a pretty wide swath of downed trees and power line issues behind it.

The heaviest hit area appears to extend from south Shreveport to near Hall Summit, Louisiana.
