Saturday, December 21

I just had my first glass of water for today.  I still detect a taste in the tap water.

My water has been mostly back to normal for the last few days.  But I have neighbors who are still complaining that their water has a bad odor/taste.

Are you still detecting a strange taste in your Youngstown drinking water?

Several people I know are now buying bottled water.

So it is not just me thinking the water tastes funny.

Water on the Westside has had an odd taste, smell off and on since August.  Several people on the NextDoor app have also complained about it.


DH says it's just my overly sensitive sense of smell.

Has anyone else noticed a strange taste in Youngstown's drinking water?

I overheard a couple complaining about the taste of the water after they were served a glass at a restaurant this evening.
