SUMMARY: Due to extremely cold weather in Mississippi, many people turned up their thermostats to stay warm, resulting in higher power bills. The CEO of a local power company warned of the increased costs due to the high demand for power during the freezing temperatures. He recommended seeking assistance for high bill payments and advised cutting back on thermostat use to save money in the future. The power company has also suspended late fees and cut offs for late payments due to the unprecedented cold spell. If you receive a higher power bill this month, the CEO recommends conserving power during the next cold spell to save money.
