The fear of a potential loss of water or low pressure to thousands of homes has somewhat abated, but Southern Water has plans in place in case of emergency.
There were concerns that up to 31,000 homes on the Isle of Wight could experience low water pressure or lose their supply completely, following Wednesday's devastating floods.
Some households have had doorstep deliveries of bottled water, as a precaution.
Southern Water said they had worked through the night to keep customers in supply and will continue to work 24/7 over this weekend.
Currently, all customers remain in supply.
A spokesperson said: "Water supplies to our customers are stable, however as we fully recover the network back to normal service there remains some risk.
"We are monitoring and preparing in case there are other weather impacts. We don’t expect to interrupt supply and continue to work to return service back to normal.
"As a precaution we have been delivering bottled water to customers including vulnerable customers and some care homes.
"We have planned bottled station locations and the water to supply these.
"We are using tankers to help support the recovery."
Tankers are in place along the Island's south coast.
Meanwhile, the County Press is running live blogs each day during this extreme weather, for all the latest news.
