WEATHER UPDATE - 3/15/2026
The NWS has placed our area under a Level 3 Enhanced Risk for Severe Storms during the evening hours tonight (8pm-11pm for our area). The primary threat of storms will come from a squall line pushing through our area causing damaging winds gusts and hail. However, a brief tornado can't be ruled out. Strong gradient winds ahead of the line may also cause some sporadic outages. Please report any power outages that may occur by calling 1-800-431-1544, or by using our online portal or mobile app. This page isn't monitored for outage reporting.

4-County crews on way to help storm-ravaged sister co-op

4-County Electric Power Association sent two crews this afternoon to assist a sister cooperative in the southwest Mississippi area with power restoration efforts.

The 14-member 4-County team left Columbus about noon on its way to Magnolia Electric Power Association, with headquarters based in Summit. Magnolia Electric provides power to a little over 33,000 meters. There were about 12,000 meters without power today following Wednesday’s storms in the area, with broken poles, damaged apparatus, and multiple spans of line down.

In addition to the manpower, 4-County sent several large pieces of equipment to assist in the recovery process, including bucket trucks, digger-derrick trucks and service/pickup trucks.

4-County and other cooperatives around the nation operate under a reciprocal agreement to provide help to each other in times of crisis.

4-County employees leaving for the Magnolia Electric service area include: Tim Adkins (heavy construction foreman), Glen Ledbetter (heavy construction foreman), Corey Kilgore (lead journeyman lineman), Allen Baty (journeyman lineman), Tanner Owen (journeyman lineman), Justin Davis (Jouneyman Lineman), Parker Cravens (apprentice 1), JaMicheal Henderson (apprentice 2), Cade Jenkins (apprentice 3), Triston Stevens (apprentice 1), Mason McCurdy (pre-apprentice), TJ Koutsovalas (pre-apprentice), Tyler Smith (apprentice 3), and Weston Farmer (pre-apprentice).

“We are glad to be in a position to send this assistance to help restore power to members of Magnolia Electric,” said 4-County CEO Brian Clark. “Our system and members have been the recipients of assistance from other electric cooperatives in the past, and we are always glad to be able to help others when they need assistance. That’s the cooperative way.”
