The advisory was issued after Friday night’s power outage that affected more than 20,000 customers.
The Gulf Coast Water Authority, the city’s water supplier, said on Saturday it was a “precautionary measure” as water pressure fell below the required threshold due to the power outage, according to the City of Texas City in a notice to residents.
Power was restored for most customers between 11 p.m. Friday night and 3 a.m. Saturday night.
