The hot weather that has baked the Quad Cities recently is causing another effect that few think about: the temperature of water in residential sinks and showers.
According to Moline's Utility Manager Greg Swanson, the temperature of the Mississippi River is approaching record levels.
"Earlier this month on July 9th, we recorded the highest water temperature at our plant since 1943," Swanson said.
Since water is coming into the treatment plant warmer it is arriving warmer than usual at residential faucets and shower heads - causing complaints.
"One customer called said that they checked every cold water facet in their home and wondered if something was wrong with their pluming," Swanson said.
Swanson said warmer than usual tap water causes no health risks.
