In the weeks following two deadly and devastating winter storms, millions of people across the South have seen their power restored. Unfortunately, hundreds of thousands remain without clean water.
From Texas to Mississippi, cities are telling residents they still need to boil water after the frigid weather cracked water mains, froze equipment and shut down treatment plants.
For many more, boiling water would be a welcome burden. They have no running water at all after their pipes froze and burst during the storms.
