The last consensus document expired about 15 hours ago. I understand that the authority operators and tor developers are probably occupied with fixing whatever is the trouble, but if someone in that group of individuals can spare a moment to fill us in on what is happening, I, for one, would greatly appreciate it. FWIW, I think a page on the torproject.org web site for very brief status updates on extraordinary situations like this one would be a good and helpful addition. Thanks much, and best of luck getting things working right again.

People are indeed working to restore service. Currently it looks like two authorities are completely offline, and a couple others are too overloaded to function properly wrt voting.
In the meantime you might like https://metrics.torproject.org/consensus-health.html which monitors the consensus.
