The outage will begin at 10 p.m. and officials say the water should be back on by 6:00 a.m. on Tuesday.

There will be a scheduled water outage Monday night along parts of the Atlantic Beach Causeway and Fort Macon Road.

The outage will begin at 10 p.m. and officials say the water should be back on by 6:00 a.m. on Tuesday.

When water service is restored, they are recommending people boil all water used for things like drinking, making ice, brushing teeth, washing dishes, and food preparation or use bottled water.

Annette is originally a Midwest gal, born and raised in Michigan, but with career stops in many surrounding states, the Pacific Northwest, and various parts of the southeast. An award-winning journalist and mother of four, Annette moved to eastern North Carolina in 2019 to be closer to family – in particular, her two young grandchildren. It’s possible that a -27 day with a -68 windchill in Minnesota may have also played a role in that decision. In her spare time, Annette does a lot of kiddo cuddling, reading, and producing the coolest Halloween costumes anyone has ever seen. She has also worked as a diversity and inclusion facilitator serving school districts and large corporations. It’s the people that make this beautiful area special, and she wants to share those stories that touch the hearts of others.
