In a situation like this, what are the best "status" sites to be watching?

https://downdetector.com/ https://downdetector.com/ client perspective is best perspective ;) Problem in this outage is that site X works ok but transit provider for clients in US works badly and generates "false positives"

  You mean nanog.org? I don't see a stats page linked in their menu.

    It’s a mailing list for network operations/engineering folks. The emails are the status updates. You’ll have to look to each network’s own site if you want connectivity, peering, and IXP red/green/ up/down status.

  Except for the fact that internetweathermap.com is super green, and the internet is not currently super green.

  Your front page has a typo: "titme". Since hacker news was down yesterday I couldn't reply here, so I tried to send you an email, but that failed to deliver, as there are no MX records for monitory.io...

  Agreed. I went to Reddit r/networking and the mods were closing helpful threads in real-time :(

  HN was down for me, unfortunately. (Connecting from Japan, so most CDN-based website load fine since it isn't route via Europe)

For a situation like this, the various tools hosted by RIPE are likely your best bet. You won't get a pretty green/red picture, but you'll get a more than enough data to work with.

Ham radio might be the answer to this one day!
