Dozens of people in Everett woke up to flooded streets and no running water after a main break.
Several roads near 35th Street and Norton Avenue were closed as crews worked to fix the problem. Water was shut off to 19 homes.
Crews tell KIRO 7 News that the weather could be a reason for the break; cold temperatures could have cracked the pipe.

Homes in the area could see discolored watered. If residents see discolored water, they should run the water until it is clear.
