    🤣 Welcome to the A, where the concerts don't play and water main breaks.
    And is it just me, but did they just said you can shower but don't get the water in your mouth and then they show 2 babies just rolling in the street water with the adult spraying water in their face 🤨 Dat the A for you. Not a single one has any sense.

    This isn’t funny or a joke for homes who don’t have water at all. Some of these comments are aggravating because you aren’t dealing with this.
    They are talking about boiling water… THERE IS NO WATER AT ALL!!!!!!!

    "1974"....my first job in Atlanta was with the Water Department and the infrastructure was described as "antiquated" then. This is a problem that was "kicked" into the future, now here we are.😎 shadylady

    They said earlier that it was 2 pipes - one 38" & one 42" - with a third line running in the same area. I'm guessing that the first break eroded the soil around the second pipe, causing it to break. The pipes' designed strength is gained factoring in the weight of the compacted soil that surrounds them. Once that soil disappears, so does the designed strength. With as long as this water has been blasting under that road, I imagine there is a large void under there that the pavement is hiding. This will likely take several days to repair depending how far they have to chase the bad pipe and erosion conditions. And hopefully they can find the parts they need. They should probably call in a contractor to handle something of this size.

    Poor reporting. Questions are answered with yes or no. True or false affirms or debunks statements. You’re better off giving the public a list of what to do and what not to do.
