Water seemingly made a comeback in Richmond's faucets overnight Wednesday into Thursday — for real this time. The big picture: Most Richmonders had been without running water for more than two days, while residents in parts of Henrico and Hanover had been without service for around 24 hours as of Wednesday afternoon.

Richmond Mayor Danny Avula shared Thursday that all nine zones served by Richmond’s water system are fully pressurized, and that the boil water advisory could be lifted by Friday or Saturday, pending water quality tests.

The outage comes after a major winter storm caused widespread impacts across more than a dozen states, including hundreds of thousands of power outages across the Midwest and Mid-Atlantic.
