It's not just you: Sprint cell phone service is down in Washington and Oregon

When cell phone service goes down, the whole world goes haywire. Today, Sprint's often-spotty service went totally down in the Pacific Northwest, and as a result Sprint subscribers in Portland and Seattle can't make calls. That's not all, though. Alaska Airlines is also reporting that the outage also affects thier internal systems, so they can't check passengers in. They've had to delay flights. Sprint's official word is that it's a fiber cut:

Due to a fiber cut in the Pacific northwest, you may have issues making or receiving calls, or accessing data services if you are in the Minnesota, Washington, or Oregon areas.
