Historical outage patterns in Mississippi
Federal outage records (EAGLE-I, kept by the U.S. Department of Energy)
contain 24,052 county-level outage records (200+ customers at peak) in Mississippi between 2014 and 2025 for the 79 counties the federal record covers — 72 of them major events of 10,000+ customers.
Half were restored within about 3.3 hr, and county-level outages here have been most common in summer (33% of all records). The busiest year on record was 2025.
Largest single-county outage on record: ~97,348 customers out in Harrison County in October 2020, restored after about 4.9 days.
Months that hit the widest area at once — these rank among the three largest outages ever recorded in the most counties: February 2021 (21 counties), June 2023 (17 counties) and October 2020 (17 counties).
Where restoration has historically taken longest: Hinds County (~9.5 hr typical), Wilkinson County (~6.3 hr typical) and Claiborne County (~6 hr typical) — against ~3.3 hr statewide.

historical records, not outages tracked live by this site. Statewide figures aggregate the same per-county records shown on each county page below;
the statewide restoration figure is the typical (middle) value across the per-county typical times, weighted by how many records each county has. A county appears in a “widest area” month when that month
produced one of its three largest recorded outages.
