Reports for the outage are widespread and began around 1PM Eastern time. So far, it doesn't seem to be confined to any one area. Alexa and Home/Assistant integration are affected, so until things are fixed, you may have some difficulty controlling your Hue lights from a personal assistant. Adding and configuring new lights may also be impacted, but operations performed entirely on the local network should be unaffected.
Philips Hue has expressed that it's working to fix the issue as soon as possible. Odds are it won't be too long until it whatever problem is present can be resolved.
