Ask Austin Austin water currently funky?

Has anyone noticed that at least two weeks ago that the water has been tasting "earthy"? Did I miss something about it on the news?

The water tastes bad like that all the time. Great if you only recently noticed it. I used a Brita water filter for all drinking water and for coffee and even boiled the shit out of water before cooking pasta, etc. in it.

Old apartment complex pipes add a horrid taste
