We had to boil water for 7 days! (October 22-28, 2018)

Due to upstream flooding, the City of Austin water treatment plants were overwhelmed with debris and silt.  The City could not clean water fast enough for all of us who wanted about 120 million gallons per day.  The City could clean about 105 million gallons daily.  We had to bring water to a rolling boil for 3 minutes for it to be safe to consume. Water pressure was an issue too.  We showered every other day.
