Montgomery County Environmental Services responded to 60 water main breaks in January, averaging two to four daily.
A Stranwood Drive resident spoke to News Center 7 and said he didn’t notice much of a problem with his water, especially since it happened in the middle of the night.
“Of course, that was a real concern, but the fear didn’t come about so we just sort of forgot about it,” he said.
He said his family noticed the water out in the street Friday night and saw crews taking care of the problem, so there was no need to worry.
