Where should I sign up for notifications?


The alert pushed to all phones was at 11:30 PM. That went to everyone in the Arlington vicinity. It’s location based you don’t have to sign up – just like if there’s a tornado warning, Amber alert, flood, etc. But I would recommend signing up at https://www.arlingtonva.us/Government/Public-Safety/Arlington-Alert
For any other emergency alerts in the county.

Can you use tap water to bake? We made cake At 10 PM last night, using water from the tap, not knowing the information.

They probably shifted where the water is coming from. They can shift around in response to things like this. DC did for a time, then had to shift back to Dalecarlia due to supply issues.


Fairfax posted on their website that they did just that.

Today is not June. We needed this post a month ago.


Obviously, you don’t live in DC or Arlington to know this is happening now, so why are you even commenting?

Was a typo. July 3-4.

I'm wondering why I didn't get a phone alert this time. I got so many last time for the NW DC problem and I live in NE.

I'm thinking my kids' camp will close tomorrow if it isn't lifted.

Do we think restaurants in DC will abide by the advisory?
