Has anyone else had trouble getting on to DU today?

I've lost DU several times and then couldn't get back on for a half hour or so three or four times today...

We've had some horrible weather here in greater Horny Toes and I was blaming it for the problems I've had.

but it has been really bad today. I was unable to get on at all for about an hour.

Oddly enough my phone would connect when my pc would not.

I keep getting 'dropped connection, sometimes happens when busy, try again later' or something like that. I thought it might be the weather or something. I could get back to Greatest Threads, but not get to any links there. Glad someone is looking into the situation. I sure miss when I can't get on to check on our world news and events.
