Mississippi's capital city Jackson is grappling with multiple water problems – there's been too much on the ground after heavy rainfall in the past week, and not enough safe water coming through the pipes for people to use. The city of 150,000 had already been under a boil-water notice for a month because the Health Department found cloudy water that could cause digestive problems. Long lines have formed each day for limited supplies of bottled water at distribution sites. Low water pressure resulted in some people being unable to take showers or flush toilets and officials said the low pressure caused concern for firefighting.
