The local radio station is also mentioning this frequently.

We've thrown out the ice from our refrigerator as well as water from our Brita picture since it had been filled in the past day. I'm reluctant to use the dishwasher for now.

Does anyone know if this means that we need to replace the filter in the fridge once the water is again safe to drink?

I believe that if you ran the water through the system during the advisory it would be safe to replace it....only if there ends up as a real problem in the water...which is only a 1% chance at this point. The results will be in tomorrow at some point and residents in those areas will receive notices on their doors again with information.
