DWU said on Nextdoor that boil water notice may be issued for this area. Fill up containers now just in case.

I live two blocks away and just lost water pressure. Great timing on a 100 degree day.

Water is pouring out like a river. Never seen a main break this bad. The whole intersection is a lake.
