Here's a statement I sent out over our weather forecast list at NIU.
In case you're wondering why your data is late...

Hello all,

All my data over the last two hours is missing or extremely late. Qwest
and Verio, two major ISP's, are both experiencing enormous problems
nationwide. This is backing up traffic all over the place. Much of the
western U.S. has lost contact with Qwest, and that's one of the biggest
areas they serve. Verio lost another router on the east coast, so they are
down there, so Weatherbug isn't working again, either. As soon as things
come back, everything will come in timely again.

Just another manic Monday...
