I'm hearing rumors of a power outage in LA - any truth? I lost access to my gear up there and the NOC phone is fast busy.

I'm seeing a number of customers that appear to have gone
down in the past hour or so, mostly from 19:05-20:25 time frame.

AM radio news is reporting a "wrong cable cut" by the department of
water and power folks... they're saying "no ties to terrorism"...

its been on cnn for the last 1.5h. make it stop.

now how a single cable cut that seems to have affected
the greater LA area including for voice and data
infrastructure can have "no ties to terrorism" is amazing.

i may file this under "ignorance induced domestic terrorism."

I've been dealing with a data center outage due to this,
and power just came back up a few minutes ago.

Halon dumps are only fun from the outside.
