MIAMI - A large water main break impacted homes Tuesday afternoon in SW Miami-Dade. 

It happened in the Kendall area of Southwest 97th Street and 117th Avenue.

Water was spewing up from the ground creating a mess.

The break was later capped in the afternoon, while municipal workers cleaned up the mess. 

The water has since receded.

Miami-Dade Water and Sewer says a third-party contractor struck the 16-inch water main. 

No word on whether there are any water advisories for those who live in the area.
