Looks like They may be testing early

Well my water stopped working almost 3 hours ago and to keep connected to the internet I've had to go through all my backup #s (11) to get one that isn't "out of service". Now I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that the power doesn't go out - it's over 105 here today.

In Phoenix, Az Our utility co. had said they were going to begin testing their communications starting the evening of the 8th, continuing all day on the 9th. Wonder if seeing how people react to their water being shut off is part of the test .

Oooo.. I've got a sister in Surprise. Wonder if they are affected. So.. your water went out but it is affecting your internet connection? I don't get it. Do you have regular phone service?

Our water came back on about an hour ago. The phone service was erratic most of the day. If this was due to any kind of testing, I hope they're finished.
