    one of the redundant circuits came up at 9:45PM and service is restored.

    there is a 48 count and a 288 count fiber in California that had been burned, the cables have been cut and splicing is underway.

    we have redundant circuits with ZAYO and LUMEN but they apparently share the same route at this end location.

    National channels are working from out TV feed in ATLANTA. but the locals are not passing over the EVPN tunnel.

    we will revisit this offline, after the California circuits are back up. we dont want to interrupt the national feed again to try and fix.

    We apologize for this, and expect the local TV service to be restored later tonight.

    We will make sure this doesnt happen in the future.

    ETA unknown yet.
