Re: Telephones Out US West Coast?

[Doug L <vssdoug@xxxxxxx>]

Verizon had a huge outage this morning affecting incoming calls South of
Los Angeles from around 2:30am to somehwere around 11:30am, 911 service
was also out in the affected areas. I think area code 562 was the
hardest hit with some 714 & 310 codes also affected.
