A power outage is causing problems for some Microsoft customers.
The issue appears to be mostly affecting users on the West Coast, but certain services that rely on Azure, including the Microsoft Store, are experiencing outages and slowdowns after a data center suffered a partial power loss. Microsoft’s Azure Status Page is updating regularly:
Starting at 08:00 UTC on 07 February 2026, a subset of customers using Azure services in the West US region may experience intermittent service unavailability or delays in monitoring and log data for some resources hosted in the affected datacenter areas. Impacted customers may observe degraded performance or delayed telemetry as services continue to recover.
