Water seemingly made a comeback in Richmond's faucets overnight Wednesday into Thursday — for real this time. The big picture: Most Richmonders had been without running water for more than two days, while residents in parts of Henrico and Hanover had been without service for around 24 hours as of Wednesday afternoon.

Richmond Mayor Danny Avula shared Thursday that all nine zones served by Richmond’s water system are fully pressurized, and that the boil water advisory could be lifted by Friday or Saturday, pending water quality tests.

Having not showered for days himself, Richmond Mayor Danny Avula met with members of the media Wednesday morning to provide a blend of updates on the city’s ongoing water crisis and a warning that water may not be safe to consume without boiling it until Friday.
