What JW reported each day, 3 March 2025 to 29 September 2026, one row a month; the number at the right is the month's days short of water. Based on 284 days with a JW report. A day counts as short of water when JW's worst report for it that day was “poor pressure to no water” or “critically low”. Gaps: Meadowlands Reservoir: no report from 25 July 2025 to 31 January 2026.

From April to September 2026 (six months), JW reported Meadowlands Reservoir short of water on 14 of 162 reported days

Days per month short of water, stacked: critically low at the base. The tick is the median supply in the city that month. The strip under each bar is the share of days with a JW report; a month with none says gap. 3 March 2025 to 29 September 2026.

In 2026 so far: 15 days short of water for Meadowlands Reservoir, from 189 days with a report. The median supply in the city: 4 days.

On Meadowlands Reservoir, half of its last 10 outages were over within 9 hours

This is not a forecast. It is how long past outages lasted. Each dot is one past outage, placed by its length: the last 10 outages on Meadowlands Reservoir. A hollow dot with an arrow had no reported end: JW's reports stopped before it ended, or it was still going at JW's last report. Either way it lasted at least that long (0 of 10).

JW's notices gave 5 end times for Meadowlands Reservoir. By the stated time, JW's boards showed the water back on none of the 5 that have passed

The water came back after the stated time 5 times; half of those times it was back within 11 hours 15 minutes of it. Each row is one end time a JW notice stated for one supply, in date order (hollow dot), against the first board on which JW reported the supply supplying fairly or better and off bypass (filled dot). This asks more than the end of an outage, which comes at JW's first report better than “poor pressure to no water” or “critically low”. An arrow: no such board yet. From 5 notices.

In words

2026 so far: JW reported it at “poor pressure to no water” or “critically low” on 15 days. JW published a report for it on 189 of the 272 days in the record; the other 83 days have no report, and we do not count them as normal. The median supply in the city had 4 such days.

2025: JW reported it at “poor pressure to no water” or “critically low” on 1 day. JW published a report for it on 95 of the 304 days in the record; the other 209 days have no report, and we do not count them as normal. The median supply in the city had 1 such day.

The last 10 outages JW reported on this supply lasted a median of 9 hours; the longest 39 hours. This is a record of the past, not a forecast.

JW's boards first named Meadowlands Reservoir on 3 March 2025 and last on 29 September 2026: 480 statuses on 480 boards, over 284 days. 22 of those statuses announced a scheduled overnight closure, which we count apart, never as an outage.

Past outages

Each row is one outage: a stretch of time JW reported Meadowlands Reservoir at “poor pressure to no water” or “critically low”, newest first. An outage has no reported end when JW's reports stopped before it ended, or when it was still going at JW's last report; its length is then a minimum.
