PSA: Impending Water Interruptions Announced By Manila Water

(SPOT.ph) Due to the looming threat of the El Niño affecting Manila's domestic water supply, Manila Water has come up with a plan to keep the water level of La Mesa Dam from declining too rapidly. In an advisory released March 4, Manila Water advised residents in some areas of Metro Manila and Rizal to expect "low pressure to no water during peak demand hours" starting March 6.

No specific schedule was provided for each water interruption, so it might be best for you to store enough water for your needs and be ready at all times in the next few weeks if you're from the following areas:
