Water seemingly made a comeback in Richmond's faucets overnight Wednesday into Thursday — for real this time. The big picture: Most Richmonders had been without running water for more than two days, while residents in parts of Henrico and Hanover had been without service for around 24 hours as of Wednesday afternoon.

The mayor also shed light on the series of events at the water plant that led to major flooding inside the building and days without access to drinking water for residents.

Richmond city Mayor Danny Avula said residents could see the boil water advisory lifted sometime between Friday and early Saturday.
