is it correct to say water goes out and comes back again?

Is this correct?

Water and gas are unpredictable. It was okay this morning when I took a shower but they went out in noon and didn't come back again until the afternoon.

It is not clear what you mean. Do you mean service is interrupted?

Having tanks of water on hand for when the water service stops makes sense.

I don't know what kind of "gas" you mean or how having an old boiler helps.

I apologized. I edited the text. This is what I'm asking about now:

This is about a remote area which has been affected by war. By gas I mean natural gas which is used for heating water and cooking.

It's OK, except it's at Noon. And you probably want to say "until later in the afternoon."

Technically, if power went out at Noon, and came back on one minute later, it came back in the afternoon.

In BrE, we'd say they "went off", not "went out".

We don't use an initial capital letter for noon.
