Just a heads up...
A water main leak in the Boston area has lead to a boil water order for a larger number of Boston area communities.

Re: Just a heads up...
I'm in North Reading too and wasn't drinking the water since Wilmington and Reading were on the list, I didn't know our water came from somewhere else, good to know!
I don't have any actual information on what would happen if someone accidentally drank the water but I think they would maybe have some stomach upset if they drank a lot of it. We used to have boil water advisories after hurricanes in FL and some people would still drink from the tap and nothing horrible happened.
I wasn't sure either when I saw the list, so I called the North Reading Fire Department and they said we weren't affected. *phew*
Which area of North Reading are you in? We're off of 28, between Rt's 62 and 125. We're new to the area so we don't know anyone up here yet.
I'm off of 62, right near the Wilmington line. We've lived here a year and still don't know many people, haha.
ETA: I meant to quote Laina.. I'm not randomly posting about where I live and how many people I know..

I think there's the possibility of contracting parasites, and manifest symptoms would be GI issues (nausea, diarrhea, vomiting).
We're in Newton and we ran to the grocery store, and they had NO water; still, sparkling, flavored, etc.
Its on the news now, and it seems like the only thing its safe for is showering, you can't even wash dishes or hands with it.
You'll probably get giardia or something.
I know Cambridge wasn't affected, not sure about Somerville though.
