受北極寒流南下影響，美國大部分地區本周遭遇近20年來最嚴寒天氣。據美國媒體1月9日報道，由于供水管道被凍住，俄亥俄州數萬居民遭遇“水荒”。為此，政府建議居民不要洗衣洗澡，就連沖廁所的次數也要盡量減少。

當天，埃文湖市政府網站上出現了一則溫馨提醒，呼吁市民暫停一切耗水量大的事情。市長布萊恩·延森更給出具體建議，要求市民不要洗衣服、不要洗澡，“我們甚至要求人們在情況好轉前盡量減少沖廁所的次數”。

Officials at Avon Lake Municipal Utilities west of Cleveland said Wednesday that the valves at the plant are caked in ice. Although they are still able to draw water, the rate is below typical demands — which means several surrounding cities could be hit by a veritable drought.

In a message on the city of Avon's official website, officials called on residents to hold off on doing anything that uses a lot of water.

Avon Mayor Bryan Jensen sent out an emergency messages to locals asking them to hold off on laundry, baths and showers, according to Cleveland.com.

"We even ask people to refrain from flushing toilets as often as they used to until this can be resolved," Jensen said.

The plant website said it provides water to over 200,000 people living in a 680-square-mile area made up of seven counties — including Lorain, Cuyahoga, Medina, Erie, Huron, Ashland and Wayne.
