If your referring to our recent problem, it is ASO.
It was the server we're on, but not the
sector we occupy. In other words we're not causing the problem nor is the cause of the problem inside our domain.

If it's not the servers, then it must be something localized near them. I've not had any trouble surfing anywhere else all day nor last night. Perhaps the sea level is already rising in Jacksonville ( or where ever ASO is housed )?
I mentioned Atlanta and why I would look to the servers location as a last option.
Here's some likely options, but don't take then to the bank.
We are on a shared server with probably 40 other domains, and about 10 days ago they added a new domain that was hyperactive different times of the day. Or the server had a hyperactive domain that push the server over the edge as they added more domains, and/or it was a spam invasion that hit all the domains at once at different times of the day causing hyperactivity. The server stats do not indicate a volume issue (to many/to fat domains) or a strain under normal use. The memory use is well within it safe parameters so I see no need for it to write to the drive either.
The issue seems to be behind us now, I'm watching the stats at high-points of the day in 4 times zones, but I think they found the culprit.
