On Protea Glen Tower, its one outage lasted 12 hours

This is not a forecast. It is how long past outages lasted. Each dot is one past outage, placed by its length: the one outage on Protea Glen Tower. 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 1).

In words

2026 so far: JW reported it at “poor pressure to no water” or “critically low” on 1 day. 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 0 days. JW published a report for it on 3 of the 304 days in the record; the other 301 days have no report, and we do not count them as normal. The median supply in the city had 1 such day.

The one outage JW reported on this supply lasted 12 hours. This is a record of the past, not a forecast.

JW's boards first named Protea Glen Tower on 3 June 2025 and last on 29 September 2026: 334 statuses on 334 boards, over 192 days. 164 of those statuses announced a scheduled overnight closure, which we count apart, never as an outage.

Month by month

Days JW reported Protea Glen Tower at “poor pressure to no water” or “critically low”, out of the days it reported it at all. A month with few reported days says little.

Past outages

Each row is one outage: a stretch of time JW reported Protea Glen Tower 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.
