Looks like someone has a case of the Mondays. 

Facebook went down Monday morning across the East Coast, with error messages telling users that “something went wrong.”

“We’re working on it and we’ll get it fixed as soon as we can,” read an error message displayed to one New York-based Mashable employee. 

According to Down Detector, the outage appears to be focused in the New York and Washington D.C. areas.

In the meantime, people are (of course) tweeting about the outage. 

We reached out to Facebook and will update this post when and if we hear back.
