Communications Failures?

Has anyone else experienced this or does anyone have any info on this?

Throughout the day today I've had several different people (myself included) report that their cell phone calls are being dropped about 2 seconds after connecting. This is multiple phone types on multiple carriers, with some people reporting these issues in Lubbock and some in Lamesa (60 miles from each other).

To make things weirder, several people (myself included) had issues with our portable radios (on a repeater) not transmitting and having to turn them off and back on to work.

To make things EVEN WEIRDER one person also reported their FM radio in their front-end loader stopped receiving signal from any station for a short time and only got static.

I'd like to say solar flare/storm, but we usually know about those in advance and get ample warning. Does anyone know what's going on?
