Just heard on a country radio station that the restaraunts are closing in McKinney because there is no water. And there won't be for 24 hours. Didn't catch why yet...........
Anyone hear anything more on that yet?? Or is anyone else's city affected? This is some bullshit! :(

YUp.. apparently the water main at the main collin county water plant burst. Now all of McKinney, Allen, Plano, Frisco, the Colony, Melissa, Prosper, Wylie, Murphy, and a few others are on emergency water conservation. No unecessary usage if you are fortunate to still have water. Some cities are expected to be out of water w/in 8hours. SUCKS!! :mad:

How the hell are we supposed to bathe>??

People here at work were saying that City water trucks were going around turning off the water main for houses that were watering. That would suck.
