We had some sort of network outage starting a bit after midnight UTC; heavy packet loss (33%-39% range) was visible on a number of networks, and the Tampa servers became difficult to reach for a time.
Additionally, there was some DST packet overload on our primary load balancer, making the wikis inaccessible through it.
Packet loss was largely reduced by about 01:05 UTC; some poking at the load balancer apparently reset things to where it was happy with the network again by around 01:18 UTC.
Sites are accessible and seem reasonably happy at this time.
