Utility officials say electricity has been
restored to the remaining 1500 customers in north Arkansas
who lost power during weekend storms.
Both the northwest and the northeast of the state were raked by
storms that blew down utility lines and drenched the region.
Entergy Arkansas say outages reached a high of 1500
during the weekend.
Friday night, as much as six inches of rain fell in northwest
Arkansas, and winds took a toll on utility lines. A dam burst in
the town of Decatur, inflicting thousands of dollars worth of
damage to downtown businesses.
