Schools have been forced to close for a second day while repair work continues to restore water to about 8,000 homes after a main pipe burst at a treatment plant.
Nearly 40 schools in Conwy have announced they will remain shut on Friday, following the incident at Bryn Cowlyd Water Treatment Works in Dolgarrog, Conwy on Wednesday night.
As many as 40,000 homes are thought to be without water as a result of the burst pipe, which closed more than 20 schools and a number of businesses on Thursday.
Water supply was expected to be restored on Thursday, but on Friday morning Welsh Water said it could take a further 48 hours, even once the main is repaired.
