How to find your neighborhood (newsobserver.com) — Many Cary neighborhoods between N.C. 55 and I-40 are under a boil-water advisory after a major 30-inch main break on N.C. 55, prompting early school dismissals and lane closures. If you’re unsure whether you’re affected, the town urges you to check your address on its Central Pressure Zone map and boil tap water for at least one minute or use bottled water until at least early Tuesday.
