Their error page said something about temperature control problems in the datacenters. Today, a graph on Flickr shows the nature of the problem. [For the record, 50°C is about 120°F.]

A chiller failed, leading to a high ambient temperature, leading to 5 other chillers failing. This is what happens next.
