I'm seeing multiple locations on comcast business failing across TN and VA today, as well as seemingly the entirety of Holston Connect Fiber in TN. Is there a backbone failure, possibly due to the tornados that hit Nashville last night?

My guess is it’s due to the tornados that hit that area. As they clean up and sort through things, there could be lots of ups and downs of service before things are fully restored.

I know this is well outside Nashville, but our Comcast fiber circuits here in Boston are working just fine. ________________________________ From: Outages <outages-bounces@outages.org> on behalf of Rob Hall via Outages <outages@outages.org> Sent: Tuesday, March 3, 2020 11:39 AM To: outages@outages.org <outages@outages.org> Subject: [outages] Comcast Business outage I’m seeing multiple locations on comcast business failing across TN and VA today, as well as seemingly the entirety of Holston Connect Fiber in TN.

Most likely due to the tornadoes in the Nashville area overnight: https://weather.com/news/news/2020-03-03-tennessee-tornado-damage-deaths-sev... I have a few subscribers in the Cookeville area (on Twin Lakes fiber) who are seeing increased latency/packet loss, all of which started about the time the tornadoes hit. My understanding is Twin Lakes is minus several uplink circuits at this point, so what's left is likely overloaded. All a result of the tornadoes. Other providers are most likely affected as well.

As noted in this and a couple of other replies, it is a safe bet that for the next 72 hours minimum, any outages that you see that terminate in or transit Tennessee are probably the outcome of the swath of tornadoes which hit the state on Monday night. It's probably not necessary to report individual outages to the list for that area. And the first person who notes that Tennessee Tornadoes would make a great name for a sports team gets his. Or hers, I don't discriminate. </admin> On March 3, 2020 12:09:32 PM EST, "Jeremy Gault, KD4NED (Senior Engineer) via Outages" <outages@outages.org> wrote:

Yep, we also have a down Windstream circuit that goes through the Nashville area. We've received an update that the affected segment is on Crown Castle fiber, and as of 1:15 CST they're on site. They are working to bypass two known fiber breaks, as well as checking for any additional breaks. We've been seeing intermittent latency spikes to Twin Lakes. I know some folks there and am sure they're doing what they can, but... natural disasters are not something easily handled. -- Chris Adams <cma@cmadams.net>
