It's been raining a lot these last days, and now there's a water excess that broke some of the main water supplier pipe of Morelia, and now my neighbourhood is one of the almost 100 without water. :mad2: :mad2:

The thing is, they can not repair it until the flooding goes, and that will be MAYBE next thursday :mad2: :mad2:

At least we have a 4,000 litres cistern, right now it's empty, and MAYBE tomorrow a cask will come and fill it. :mad2: :mad2:

yeah, it's almost ironic, we have electricity, phone, cell phone, tv and internet....but no damn water.

the reasons are a bit complex, Morelia is supplied from 3 different dam (dikes?), the ammount of rain make them go over 100% of its capacity, the operators had to open the turbines of the biggest dam, letting water flow at 40,000litres per second, this water increased the flow of a river which flooded some areas outside the city, one of those areas happened to have the pipes that broke, the problem is, they can't fix it because the water would be poluted, the river that flooded carries poluted water.

Fortunately the cask came today and we filled the cistern.

Good to hear that you have at least 4,000 litres of water, Luis :)

With the amount of alcohol you drink you need a LOT of water :eek:


:p

we drink bottled water, we have no problem with that ;)

the only use we give to that water is to wash dishes, clothes, and to take showers.

That sux big time. It's been raining pretty bad here too, but at least we rarely have to put up with losing the water supply. :(

Because water supply is supposed to be the "basic" service any house should have, TV and internet are just superflous.

True, I pay the DSL and electric bill before all others. I could live without water, but my nightly porn fest? The horror.

The water supplied is back, guess i should have posted about it.

I said net is superflous, which doesn't diminish the need i have for it, or any other superflous things :D
