The Guadalupe River in Victoria is expected to crest at 30.9 feet Wednesday evening.

The Guadalupe River at Bloomington is expected to crest on Friday at 29.5 feet.

Sunshine returns to the forecast for Thursday!

WATER SERVICE
Water service has been restored 100%, but a boil notice remains in effect. Residents should plan for the boil notice to remain in place for up to a week. The Public Works Department continues to ask residents to conserve water.

WATER, ICE DISTRIBUTION
The distribution centers at the Victoria Community Center and Victoria East High School will be back in service tomorrow from noon to 5 p.m. Water and ice will be available as long as supplies last.

ELECTRICAL SERVICE
Progress is being made to restore electrical service across the area. AEP and Victoria Electric Co-op are still hard at work.

TRAFFIC CONTROL
As power is restored to intersections, traffic lights are being placed on all way red flash. A limited number of stop signs are being placed at intersections. Regardless of whether there are lights or signs, or the intersection remains open, motorists are reminded to treat each intersection as a four-way stop.

GASOLINE
As more stores have power restored, gasoline supplies will begin to ease. However, motorists should be mindful that statewide gasoline supplies have been interrupted by major refineries being out of service periodically in Corpus Christi and Houston.

TRASH SERVICE
Residents will be able to take HOUSEHOLD TRASH ONLY to one of two drop stations beginning tomorrow. Drop off locations are at Solid Waste Department offices at 1701 SW Ben Jordan or the Del Norte Complex at 8505 N. Navarro Tuesday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. This is for household trash only. CONSTRUCTION AND STORM DEBRIS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED. Trash should be in plastic trash bags when taken to the drop off locations.
