Large areas of South and West Jackson continue to lack water.
Well connections are not affected. Distribution sites announced.
The city of Jackson issued the following statements
We
continue to struggle to return pressure to the water system. We are
producing significant amounts of water and pushing that into the system
but the pressure
is not increasing - despite those efforts at the plants.
The
issue has to be significant leaks in the system that we have yet to
identify. We are continuing the search today, supplementing our
workforce with EPA and
contractor resources.
We
are asking residents to report any leaks they observe. You can call
311, 601-960-1111, or 601-960-1875 to report leaks. Please refrain from
reporting pressure
loss, as we are well aware of the system pressure issues and those
reports consume our capacity to receive reports of leaks.
We
know that many area are without water and pressure. We know that for
some, this problem has been consistent for days. The entire water team
apologizes for
this situation. We all look forward to the day our collective
investments in the water system make events like this a distant memory.
We will continue to update you guys as more information is available.

No water provided to NE Jackson?
Idling vehicle in line, burning gas, to collect free water in packs of 8 oz plastic containers?. Why not bring gallon jugs to Fairgrounds, park and walk to multiple public spigots, carry two gallons at a time back to car five times, for a total of 10 gallons per trip to Fairgrounds? Gallon jugs enclose more water with less plastic and gallons are more practical for most household use, plus the Fairgrounds well water is already "paid for".
Attn 10:23 No, they can afford to buy their own water.
@10:23 AM - If you (limosine liberal) can afford to live in NE Jackson, you can afford to purchase your own bottled water.
Prince Chowke's hotel in Miami is not having water problems.
"... you guys"?
They're just supposed to give, not receive.
All NE Jackson residents need to call that number and see how fast they bring you some water. DONT hold your breath waiting.
Antar should have not bitten the hands that helped in the most recent water crisis. Hell will freeze over before Tate calls out the National Guard this time.
Since we have to boil water...I'm doing just that and homebrewing beer
Can you not read?
"Water System Update
Large areas of South and West Jackson continue to lack water".
Prince Chowke will be throwing Ted Henefin under the bus in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1...
NE Jackson can get its own water.
Bad optics for Comrade Теодор.
Northeast Jackson is being punished for voting Republican city council and for Michael guest. Lumumba and PhD dummy Omari is mad!!!
December 26, 2022 at 12:26 PM, with the wind chill Friday morning, hell may have frozen over.
" in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1..."
That was kind of cute 10 years ago.
Fixed this sentence for you Chowkey.
"We all look forward to the day when the Federal bailout funded repair of the water system due to the gross incompetence of my administration make events like this a distant memory."
Of course Antard will be long gone when that day arrives.
Turn off those dripping faucets, y'all.
Speaking of hell freezing over, it reminded me of an old joke that went something like this.
It was Sunday morning down at the community church. They have done had Sunday school, and everyone had gathered back into the main sanctuary.
The song leader had done lead the congregation in two or three songs. Of course, the collection plate was passed around. Now the old pastor has eased up to the pulpit, and almost everybody was checking their watches, hoping the Sunday morning sermon wouldn't be too long. A long-winded sermon would make it hard to get a good seat at the local eating establishment.
About the time the old pastor is going to give his text to preach, all hell breaks loose, literally. The floor opens up in front of the pulpit, flames, smoke, the over powering smell of sulfur begins to fill the building.
Women are screaming, men are gathering children, just a general tumult has occurred. The old pastor is shocked to say the least and flees out the back of the building while the congregation is pushing and shoving out the front.
All, except for one old man sitting on the front pew, he ain't moved. Sitting there like it is just another Sunday morning. Old Lucifer throws his head back with an evil grin on his wicked face and laughs loud, and long, until he sees that old man sitting there.
Lucifer goes over to the old man, he gets nose to nose with him. Looking eye to eye with the ruler of hell. Lucifer said, do you know who I am, the old man said yeah, I know who you are? Lucifer said, you ain't scared, the old man said no, I ain't scared?
Lucifer is taken aback, and says, who are you that you ain't afraid of the devil? The old man says you don't recognize me, Lucifer says no, I don't recognize you? The old man says, well you should, I married your daughter?
Your long winded screed/joke might be better understood if you alluded to, or applied, some known person who might be the devil... Bill Clinton? ...Paul Pelosi?

Well, you blow a vein any time someone says 'you people'.
Belly up! What do 'you all' prefer?
