The H-E-B in West Lake Hills was out of water early Monday afternoon.
Randalls on Bee Cave Road was expecting a shipment Monday afternoon.
[LUZ MORENO-LOZANO/WESTLAKE PICAYUNE] @LuzMorenoLozano Residents in West Lake Hills and Rollingwood were being asked to boil their water before using it while Austin Water’s treatment plant stabilizes.
Travis County Water District 10 issued a boil water notice Monday for all its customers drinking and cooking with water.
As a direct customer of the city of Austin, Rollingwood is also affected.
• Boil water intended for drinking.
The water is safe for laundry and for bathing, officials said.
Becky Heiser, who frequents the store, said she boiled water Monday morning and was hoping to also stock up on bottled water for her home.
“We are expecting this to go through the week and are asking all our customers to check back.” The H-E-B on Capitol of Texas Highway (Loop 360) in the Village at Westlake shopping center was also out of bottled water but encouraged customers to purchase sparkling water until a new shipment reached the store.
“I’m a little late to the party so we will just have to boil some water and put in the fridge for (the kids).” Marti Kirchem said she normally drinks sparking water and figured she would be OK when she went to the store Monday afternoon, but when she got there the H-E-B brand canned sparkling water she normally drinks was gone.
