BRADENTON BEACH, Fla. — The City of Bradenton Beach has issued a boil water notice after Hurricane Helene left tap water in the area unsafe to drink.
Officials said the notice is in effect immediately, and residents should opt for bottled water.
If bottled water is not accessible, residents should bring their tap water to a "full roiling boil" for one minute to kill germs.

"I cried, of course, because I've worked very hard getting it nice, which has been difficult for me since I lost my husband and being alone,” Kelly Welty said.
Welty's mobile home lost its roof during Hurricane Milton. She said it was the only one in the Buena Vista community to get totaled by a tornado.
