NEWS - Flooded New Jersey Residents Without Water

The city of Hoboken flooded due to a major burst pipe and residents have been without water. As of this early this morning local time, crews were still working to restore water pressure to Frank Sinatra's home town. Businesses have suffered enormously and several main streets are still closed.

Emergency water tanks were brought in to provide fresh drinking water for the residents.

The City of Hoboken issued an alert as a precaution for people to boil water for one minute before consumption purposes only - this should be done for drinking, cooking, baking, making ice cubes, taking medication, brushing teeth, washing food, making baby formula or food, mixing juices or drinks, feeding pets and all other forms of consumption. The City of Hoboken has stated that there is no need to boil water if one is showering, bathing, washing dishes and washing clothes.
