An emergency water main break late Wednesday, Dec. 10 in Moberly has prompted a boil advisory for several blocks in the southeastern part of the city.

Water service was interrupted Wednesday for the 1300 to 1600 blocks of East Urbandale, as well as Darwood Circle, Cedar Ridge, Cedar Lake, and 1710 Gratz Brown. The outage may also impact surrounding areas. Any residents who experience low water pressure or a loss of service will go under a 48-hour boil advisory once service is restored. Anyone under a boil advisory will need to bring any water intended for consumption to a boil for three minutes and allowed to cool before drinking. Any Moberly resident with questions can call the city’s water office at 660-263-4420.

This is the second boil advisory issued this week in Moberly. The first advisory, impacting customers on the 700 and 800 blocks of U.S. Route 24, was lifted Wednesday evening.
