First we had (and still have) a hosepipe ban.

And now it seems like a lot of areas in Dublin will be without water today due to burst water mains. Essential maintenance has to take place over the coming hours to fix the pipes in around around the greater Dublin area, with 6 places being without water until later this evening. Here are all the areas without water today:
