information from a vendor is appropriate, or not a violation of the AUP.
		
		The public information is that a fiber conduit that
travels near or under water between Tulsa and Barnsdale OK is being
crushed by ice, and degrading the optical characteristics of the fiber.
Besides affecting the vendor's circuits, several major circuits that
make up part of the Research and Education network backbones are also
affected. The internal notes indicate that there are other customers
affected. Time of day and temperature are affecting the magnitude of
disruptions.
		
		The problem goes back to the 8th of Feb. I can only
imagine the work being done to try and thaw out and dry out the path,
given the weather conditions. It is currently 35, with an expected low
tonight around 18.

			Nothing on the portal, but the detail to 4622732
- Fiber Damage due to inclement weather/ice is an interesting read. Glad
I am not a Level 3 field tech, I hate cold weather.

			Yeah, definitely wasn't a phantom. If anyone
ends up with a master ticket that would be nice to know about.

			Anyone else having a problem with Level 3 in
Chicago right now?  We just saw a bunch of routes out of Chicago go
bonkers.
