Presumably this indicates that the world is on fire and the sky has gone black with carrion crows: > 11:11 AM PDT -- We can confirm degraded performance for a small number of EBS volumes in a single Availability Zone in the US-EAST-1 Region. Instances using affected EBS volumes will also experience degraded performance.
