Update, 4:04pm: All services reportedly back online as of 3:57pm PT, i.e. nearly 5 hours of downtime. I'm currently logged into SL.
A major unplanned Second Life downtime was officially reported at 11:14 AM PT today and as of this writing at 2:30PT PT, access still seems to be interrupted across major services. (I just tried to load the Marketplace website, for example, but it hung forever.)
Go here for more updates from the official status page. If I'm reading the @SLGridStatus feed on Twitter correctly, this is the longest unscheduled downtime of Second Life of the entire year.
More updates here when I have them!

[status] Investigating: We are currently seeing intermittent issues with Profiles, Marketplace, and Log ins, and we are currently investigating this. Please watch this blog for updates. https://t.co/FDcKrsrIwB
