OK, the weather is beautiful here 300 days of the year - I am not complaining. However, the recent rains we experienced (that we really needed) have left us another problem. Potentially contaminated water.
It doesn't help that two of our treatment plants were already down for maintenance. I completely forgot the alert yesterday and showered (long and hot), did laundry, drinking tap water.... duh!

Thank god I don't drink the crap.
You should be fine out there - they say the west side is clear.
SG and his son live out there...I bet they're all nice and clean - and hydrated.
Posted by: Vox at January 25, 2005 07:20 PMI know a bit about this type of thing and I know they are just being cautious. If they'd have found contaminants it would have been even bigger news. For now it's just dirt and overload on the filters. Though they've scared the crap out of people who don't fully understand the system. On a side note I love living in Peoria, mmmm tasty tap water!!
Posted by: wickld at January 25, 2005 07:57 PMWickld is right, it's just a wee bit of dirt. If it was totally bad/dangerous I would imagine they would be handing out bottled water big time and going door to door and all that. It's only Phoenix and parts of Paradise Valley Rach.
Peoria water is indeed tasty Wickld!
