T-Mobile PR on twitter just posted that two of it's submarine cables are
out of service.

Claro PR Wireless (this is the ILEC in PR) website can't even be reached.

I am assuming this is due to power and submarine cable issues since I'm
sure t-mobile and many other providers are using the same cables.

One of the cable landing stations experienced flooding, and shutdown its
power system affecting some circuits.  I haven't been able to determine how
many submarine cable systems are affected, since they share cable landing
stations.
