Mobile shower units have been set up at a Walmart in Ripley to provide hot showers to residents affected by ongoing power outages, according to local officials.
A significant portion of Tippah County remains without electricity, prompting community assistance efforts. The mobile units aim to support those in need during the outage, which has persisted for several days.
Officials did not specify the duration of the mobile shower service or how many residents are expected to benefit. The initiative is part of broader relief efforts in the region affected by the outage.
