Today a nationwide outage of LTE networks is hitting the USA and Verizon has been vocal about being on the case with a fix as soon as possible. If you’re experiencing dataloss in Houson, Dallas, Memphis, greater California, and New York City, you’re not alone, though you are unique if you’re not able to access 3G data, as Verizon has also noted that all 3G services are operating as they ought to be.

so says Slashgear.com in this article

A comment on that article is also critical of the "3g services are normal" statement.

DrBenji notes:

Everyone freaking knows LTE phones are unable to connect to 3G when the 4G network goes down--we all get stuck on 1X. So do 3G phones operate properly, no hopping down to 1X? Is that what allows them to claim their 3G network is operating normally? Because for 4G customers, we know 3G is borked too when 4G goes down.
