A water main break has created a geyser in Pittsburgh.

The break is in the 3900 block of Oakdale Street in Observatory Hill.

Ash said PWSA told her it took them so long to respond to the break because their crew was patching a separate one across the city in Point Breeze.

Channel 11 talked to Valerie Ash, whose home is one of a couple without water.

"When I saw this, I was just...I was just blown away. I couldn't believe it had gotten this big," said Ash.

Service should be restored sometime Wednesday morning.
