9. We heard about the don't drink the water warning at

6AM, at Kroger's by 7AM and no water to be had within 12 miles. Spooky is right.

Good that you have a well. I hope your stores are restocked by tomorrow. Hundreds of trucks from retailers were diverted here yesterday and today.

The National Guard brought big tanks of water, Anheuser-Busch filled beer cans with water, the help has been amazing. No one is going thirsty.

All of our restaurants are closed, all those employees are losing money they can't afford, and the owners are suffering from food going bad.

The latest update is that the rest of the water testing results won't be back until tomorrow. This could go on a while, maybe until the weather cools in October. Algae peak is late Sept. It's a nightmare.
