TL;DR Summary

Memphis, with over 600,000 residents, is enduring its fourth day under a boil water notice due to broken pipes caused by sub-freezing temperatures, snow, and ice. Repair crews are working to fix the issues, with the hope of restoring water service to most customers by Tuesday. However, residents will likely need to continue boiling water through Thursday due to concerns about harmful bacteria contaminating the water supply. The city's water system is not the only one in Tennessee facing problems, as 28 water systems are under boil water notices and 17 counties are reporting operational issues with their water utilities.
