I was happy to see this FB post from the Normal, IL, Fire Department:
Statement from fire department that explains how the scale of the fires are what is causing the water pressure and supply problems. It also explains that this fire is 8 times larger than the Great Chicago Fire and ens with an expression of sympathy and support for the firefighters and the communities. It also specifically pushes back against the mis-information being shared.

For me to be even this early to something new is pretty notable. 😉
