The Tsunami Warning Center reports the quake occured at 10:44 PST, with an estimated magintude of 6.2. Some web sites are down, such as www.seattletimes.com, but it appears to be a localized issue. Seattle Public Library, King County Library, Amazon.COM and Microsoft.COM all appear to be functioning. I couldn't find any traceroutes through Sprint's network in the northwest, but I don't know of any sites with only Sprint connectivity, so I don't know about Sprint. ATT, Cable & Wireless, and PSI appear normal. I could reach parts of Qwest/USWEST, but I don't know their physical network topography, so I couldn't tell if I was reaching Seattle or somewhere else.

Heya Pete, Nope, no announcement. It would be nice to have one in Miami so that both NAPs (BellSouth & NAP of the Americas) can be explored. Cheers, -Ren At 10:34 AM 2/26/01 -0700, you wrote: >Was the date/place of the next NANOG announced in Atlanta? > >Pete. > >

Multiple folks are reporting their Sprint DS3 and T1 circuits are down in the Seattle area. Abovenet, UUNET, Verio, Qwest, and more report no backbone infrastructure problems in the Seattle area. A few individual customer circuits are down, but it is likely a problem at the customer site, not with the network. The Seattle Internet Exchange (SIX) appears operating as normal. Qwest/USWEST reports extremely heavy call volume in the Seattle area, and dial tone may be delayed. But there is minimal infrastructure damage to their network. Data circuits appear functioning as normal. Some long-distance telephone networks have messages that calls can not be completed due to an earthquake in the area.

According to ABC News, there was just a 6.2 magnitude earthquake, with the epicenter about 35 miles away from Seattle. It appears that Sprint is having some connectivity issues in the Seattle area, several Seattle routers in sprint's network are unreachable at the moment. Anyone else experiencing problems? -- Kevin

The US Geological Survey has revised the magnitude to 7.0. Due to structural damage in the air traffic control tower the SeaTac airport has been closed down. All railroad traffic at standstill until tracks have been inspected. Cell phones in the area are very congested, and people report difficulty making phone calls in and out of the area. I have not heard if any phone companies have imposed network management controls on voice traffic. Folks have reported in from the Westin Building, the main Internet hub in the seattle area, that no substantional damage to the building. Approximately 11,000 electrical customers are without power.
