Such assurances from Nanny Bloomberg early this morning haven’t allayed residents’ concerns. And it’s not just New Yorkers who are worried about water safety. We’ll keep an eye on this issue throughout the day.
Just heard that the water in Nassau county L.I. Is not safe to drink. Not even after boiling.

Tap water in Long Beach and Mill Neck Estates in Nassau County, NY is not safe to drink and boiling will not help, per the weather channel.

Good to know that catastrophic disasters can’t conquer the snark:
What if I have water coming out of my door? RT@NYCMayorsOffice: If you have water coming out of your faucet, it is safe to drink. #Sandy
