As I recently noted within another thread, Udoue:

Q u o t e:
Unfortunately, we experienced some technical difficulty with the Breaking News page (http://launcher.worldofwarcraft.com/alert) last evening. As a result, a bulletin regarding scheduled realm maintenance was not immediately available at the login screen. For any inconvenience this posed, I do sincerely apologize.

Information was, however, posted within the Service Status Forum:

Q u o t e:
We will be performing our scheduled weekly maintenance for all US and Oceanic Realms beginning at 05:00 AM PST and 11:00 AM PST. No realms will be available for play between approximately the hours of 05:00 AM PST and 11:00 AM PST.

Thank you for your patience.


Should you not see a bulletin at the login screen on Monday, please check our Service Status Forum for a related maintenance post. Here's a quick link that you can bookmark:
