Water on streets in Ajijic Centro Empty Water on streets in Ajijic Centro

Post by CanuckBob Sat May 11, 2019 9:38 am

During my walk this morning there is/was large amounts of water on most of the N/S and E/W streets from Colon to Miguel Blanco. A busted water main couldn't have possibly caused water on all these streets. Do they ever send around a water truck to spray the streets to keep the dust down or something? It's weird.

Noticed and wondered, too. It wasn't like something had been sprayed. It was what you'd see if there was a leak at the top end of the street. The really odd thing is that multiple streets N to S all had the same pattern of water running down them from downtown. ???

More strange was the E/W streets also having as much water.

Probably a pipa truck. Neighbors said the ayuntamiento was going to send one around to those down the streets in SA.

Must have been upper Ajijic or in the mountains. That would make sense. There certainly wasn't any rain at my place.

No rain anywhere in the area last night. Not even any clouds within 50 miles of Ajijic. It had to be a water main break.

There was so much water along the Carretera in the middle of Ajijic. It must have been a major water break or pipe break or whatever.
