MLGW News Release
 
MLGW crews prepared for severe weather
March 31, 2023
Memphis Light, Gas and Water Division is preparing for severe weather as the National Weather Service is forecasting damaging winds and tornados in the Mid-South this evening. Impacts to the MLGW service area may include power outages, tree damage, and travel difficulties.

MLGW crews and additional contract crews are ready to respond to any local damage or outages. Customers are also asked to visit MLGW’s storm readiness guide for tips on preparing for weather emergencies: mlgw.com/images/content/files/pdf/StormPrep.pdf.

MLGW Community Offices closed at 3:30 p.m. today, however, the Residential Care Center will remain open. Customers can call 544-6549 for account concerns or use MLGW My Account.

Reminder: Customers should avoid contact with downed power lines—even if their home or area has experienced a loss of power as the lines could still be energized.
