Water Drop Alert

Severe weather and heavy rains are in the forecast. Every drop counts when it comes to reducing the risk of basement backups and sewer overflows. Try to use less water until you're notified the Water Drop Alert has ended:

• Hold off on washing dishes
• Do the laundry tomorrow
• Take a shorter shower

To sign up for Water Drop Alerts by texting, text: WATERDROP to 414-296-4422

When a Water Drop Alert™ is issued, we will send a text alert, share it on our social media, and post the alert on mmsd.com. Using less water during heavy rain can help keep extra water out of our sewers, protect Lake Michigan, and help keep water out of our basements.
