FULL STORY
======================================================================

Its only been 10 days since Verizons major network outage took out service 
across the United States, but it seems that the big-red-themed carrier is 
having yet another service disruption, potentially another major outage. 

Weve been tracking reported outages via Down Detector , which have also been 
fluctuating over the past 24 hours. However, for about the last hour, dating 
back to 1PM ET, there has been a steady increase, hitting over 1,500 reported 
outages. This means that Verizon customers are noticing no connectivity bars, 
trouble making or receiving calls, and even spotting SOS at the top of their 
phones. 

Ahead, well be reporting live on this outage and its potential impact of us, 
so stick with TechRadar for the latest on what might be Verizons second major 
outage in less than two weeks. Weve also reached out to Verizon to ask for a 
comment and to see if this is an official outage. 

As of 2:01PM ET, Down Detector's outage map for Verizon is showing the most 
reports within New York, Washington DC, Dallas, Kansas, and Los Angeles. I'm 
based out of New Jersey, right across the river from New York, and still see 
a full four bars and 5G on Verizon as of now. (Image credit: Future/Jacob
