boil water notice

has been issued for over 3,000 homes in Glenties and Ardara, as a result of Storm Darragh.   We have to use boiled water to brush our teeth and drink, of course this is after it has cooled,  but we can shower.  Hopefully this won't last long.

  1. Oh no! It's terrible when the water is not good. I hope the water returns to normal soon.

  5. Hope it won't last longs. We have lots of rural communities here in Nebrasak who have had to do that, but these days it can happen in the urban areas as well. All the best.

  6. I hope the water issue passes quickly. That has to be very inconvenient.

  7. It does take time for water systems to clear out pollutants, so keep boiling water until you get an all clear. Hope all else is good.

  9. So sorry you have that inconvenience. I hope the storm didn't cause much damage, and that your quality water is returned soon. Our recent 2 month stint without potable water was not any fun at all here in western North Carolina.

  11. Toda precaución es poca, para no poner en peligro nuestra salud.
    Que tengas una buena semana.

  13. I don't remember ever getting a burn notice before, it sounds like it would be a very big pain.

  20. Good idea and good advice. We had to boil our water in the early days of travelling.

  21. It's not just boiling the water... To sterilize it you need to boil it for 15 minutes...
    Everything for the best. A hug, dear friend.
