Houston organizations and elected officials are setting up water distribution sites for residents throughout the weekend beginning Feb. 19.

As the city remains under a boil water notice and many residents are facing water shortages from low pressure or burst pipes, Community Impact Newspaper is compiling a list of distribution sites and times. Check back for updates.

Some sites are distributing water that can be used for flushing toilets or bathing in addition to or in lieu of water that is safe for drinking.
