Lewisville water issues
The backstory
On Sunday night, thousands of water users in central Lewisville experienced an abrupt drop in water pressure.
Although the city claims that water service was restored in three hours, the brief loss of water pressure necessitated a boil water notice from the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality.
On Monday, Lewisville ISD closed 21 schools located inside the boil water notification region.
