At the start of a hot and humid day Monday, the Suffolk County Water Authority customers used more water than ever.

The water authority, which serves 1.2 million county residents, reported it hit its all-time high water pumping figure — 545,726 gallons per minute — across its service territory at 5:35 a.m. Monday’s usage broke an earlier record of 542,610 gallons per minute set in July of 2016.
