A water outage reported early Wednesday morning in Dix Hills was the result of a system-wide equipment malfunction, according to the Town of Huntington.

Officials say the malfunction made the water tanks receive false readings on tank quantity.

The issue has since been resolved and water is flowing normally.

After the initial reports of the outage, Half Hollow Hills Central School District announced plans to operate under a two-hour delay for remote learning.
