HOUSTON – The city of Houston remains under a boil water advisory and while water pressure has improved across the area, the advisory is expected to stay in effect until Monday.

Dozens of nearby municipalities, including the Pearland and Katy also issued boil water notices.

Residents are advised to use bottled or boiled water for drinking, cooking and hygiene purposes like brushing your teeth or washing your face until the notice is lifted.

Amid the boil water advisory, several water distribution sites are opening in the Houston area.

Please note this list will be updated as new sites are announced and closed.

Here are the water distribution sites:
