No more floods in Kirtley!

So how does a whole town run out of water?

As sent in a group email from Mrs. Fowler:


Jodi and Sarah called to tell me that the water is out in Kirtley. It is out at our house, too, so I called around to find out why. I just spoke with someone from the Water Plant. They were already aware of the problem and said that the water should be back on in about 30 minutes. They believe, however, that the water pressure will be low for the rest of the night.

The reason for this is that they have someone coming to do maintenance first thing in the morning. The pipes have to be empty, so they decreased the amount running through the system. They didn't think the water would run out until late into the night.

I'm so sorry for the inconvenience. Thank you for your patience!



*sigh* Takeshi didn't believe me when I told her, but if the pressure backs up in the toilet and bursts the pipes she'll believe me.....
