It seems to be focused primarily on the East coast.

[{"selector":"#anim-3c5bf599-2273-4c9d-a91a-5ec06f35a8f9","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":200,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-4ff5bbf4-9ba6-4241-8a7e-c56746dd88be","keyframes":{"transform":["translate3d(114.82649%, 0px, 0)","translate3d(0px, 0px, 0)"]},"delay":200,"duration":1200,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.2, 0.6, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}] [{"selector":"#anim-996de565-4095-456a-899a-c533a610675f","keyframes":{"opacity":[0,1]},"delay":0,"duration":2000,"easing":"cubic-bezier(0.4, 0.4, 0.0, 1)","fill":"both"}]

All Amazon products and services are down or experiencing interruptions.
