For what it's worth:
I just heard on the local news that 3 fiber optic cables, as well as
one large copper bundle was cut in the Tyson's Corner area (Northern
Virginia). No idea what impact it may have on net traffic, although one
fiber strand was reported as belonging to MCI.
For those who may not know, MAE-East is in the Tysons Corner vicinity.
