Author: KNOXVILLE, Tennessee — The Tennessee Valley Authority says about 152,000 homes and businesses, mostly in Alabama, remain without power as a result of last week’s severe weather in the South.
Barbara Martocci, a spokeswoman for the federal utility, said Monday afternoon that it anticipates restoring power to most of its customers this week and as early as later Monday or Tuesday.
