I don't understand why they don't update the status page. Been going on for 1+ hour. Is it counted as "uptime"?

It's now been updated to 13 products and still nothing on the public status page.

Seeing significant impacts to legacy networking VPC's, and a number of error banners in the console right now. We had a number of alerts firing early on starting at 0801 PDT as Google Cloud Metrics started to fail to be reported.
