"In case you heard otherwise, there is no radar outage and https://radar.weather.gov is fully operational! Outdated content from isolated webpages stating otherwise has been circulating, but NWS radars are operating normally."

per NWS on X.

Multiple other Weather Watchers reporting that there was a single page from an office that had a cached error message that was 2 years old.

Friday the 13th has so far seen outages with Microsoft, Claude, ATC systems, and now the weather service.

It's hard not to think they're connected in some way.
