Some Lenoir City residents are waking up without water this morning after a water main broke downtown.
Lenoir City Utility Board Safety Director Matt Fagiana says about 150 customers are out.
They expect that number to increase when customers wake up and start using water.
Fagiana says the water main break created a small pond.
Crews started suctioning off the water but heavy rain around the city flooded the area and put crews back at square one.
Fagiana says he doesn't know when it will be fixed.
He says every crew in the water department is working on it.
