There’s a break in a 36″ Water Main at 13th and Florida streets this morning, causing much of the Northwest/Northeast section of DC to be without water today. The break happened around 4am this morning and has made a real mess of the roads in the area as well. The following neighborhoods are reported to be without water:
Brookland, Adams Morgan, parts of Dupont and Columbia Heights
Five medical facilities serving those areas are also short of water at this point. DC EMA says they’re hoping to have outlying areas restored shortly, but they’ll have to work through the weekend to get the areas near the main break.
