How Dry I Am

[edschweppe]

There's a water main break near the center of town - and I'm apparently on the downstream side. As in, no water for me, for now. (Apart from the gallon or so in the fridge. And the jerrycan I keep under the kitchen sink. And the spare distilled water I keep for the CPAP.)

The water district has crews on site, and the snowpocalypse won't start snowing until tomorrow. However, it is ridiculously cold. Still, this will hopefully be a relatively short annoyance.

The good news is that I've got some water pressure; I don't think it's enough to run the dishwasher, but it is enough for a flushed toilet to (eventually) refill. OTOH, as of the district's last update (6:26PM), the broken pipe has been "located and exposed" but not yet removed, let alone replaced. Hopefully they can do that before the snow starts tomorrow ...

As of 12:47AM Sunday:

The broken water main has been repaired and all water has been restored.
