Boil water notice issued for Lorenzo - kcbd.com

City officials haven't said when the notice will lift. Lorenzo sits about 20 miles northeast of Lubbock, a small town where a shutdown like this touches nearly everyone at once.

The city hasn't released additional details on the leak's location or a repair timeline. Residents know to boil their water before drinking it, cooking with it or brushing their teeth, and to wait for the next update.

That's the kind of notice that turns into a waiting game for a whole town, one leak, one water tower, and no clock on when it ends.
