A boil order for Skokie was lifted Sunday night after residents were stuck boiling water or using bottles for two days — following a water main break that flooded several blocks. Businesses and residents were elated that they could finally drink and use their water safely.

A boil water order in Skokie will remain in effect until at least Sunday evening, according to an update from village officials. Officials said Sunday morning that a pipe at the burst water main was replaced, but work was ongoing at the site.
