Recent flooding in Austin has caused some sort of problem deeming the tap water not safe. The jails are boiling water for inmates and all restaurants are being forced to not use the tap water.
Only problem... I didnt see the notice and I drank it all day yesterday.
This is actually getting kinda crazy,

Apparantly the city just cant keep up with all the water. I kind of feel like them scaring the public into not drinking it is a last ditch effort to get us to really use less water..
I dunno its fucked. They're saying this can last 2 weeks.
Water filters are no good, you have to boil any water you use. One drop can make you sick, no bottle water anywhere.
I work in a restaurant. Nearly all of them are being shut down. Mine haven't yet.
