HOUSTON – A boil water notice in Houston will likely be lifted Monday, Mayor Sylvester Turner reiterated during a briefing Friday.

Earlier this week Houston residents were warned to boil their water — if they had the power to do so — after water pressure plummeted throughout the Houston-area.

Several nearby municipalities, including the Pearland, Katy and Sugarland areas have also issued boil water notices.

Residents are advised to use bottled or boiled water for drinking, cooking and hygiene purposes like brushing your teeth or washing your face until the notice is lifted.

Since Wednesday, water pressure has improved across Houston, said city officials, though the city’s public works department is still working to build up and stabilize it.

Amid the boil water advisory, several water distribution sites are opening in the Houston area.

Please note this list will be updated as new sites are announced and closed.
