Your street may differ: each report covers a reservoir or tower and the area it feeds, and higher streets lose water first. What JW's words mean

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”, as happening or expected (expected most often means higher streets). A warning that it may occur does not count.

In short

The latest JW report on this site is from 29 September 2026; the site last read JW's website on 1 October. Constantia Tower had water as normal. This year Constantia Tower was short of water on 7 of the 189 days JW reported it. A typical reservoir or tower in the city had 4 such days. On Constantia Tower, half of its last 8 outages lasted at least 21 hours; the longest since March 2025 lasted 2.1 days. No JW notice we have read names Constantia Tower.

Latest JW report

Outages

JW reported 8 outages on Floracliffe's supply since March 2025. The longest lasted 2.1 days. Every outage, with how long it lasted: Constantia Tower.

JW's end dates

No JW notice we have read stated an end time for this supply. Each end date against what happened: Constantia Tower.

Under strain

In 2026 so far, Floracliffe had 7 days under strain: days when JW reported any of its supplies low or worse, or warned that higher-lying areas may lose water. This is a wider count than days short of water.

The network is linked. When a supply runs low, the reservoirs and towers around it carry more. At such times JW's boards sometimes warn of “poor pressure to no water in higher-lying areas”: under strain, higher streets lose water first. JW does not say which streets those are.

What JW's boards cannot tell you

JW's boards report reservoirs and towers, so some things are not in this record:
