It will be here throughout the morning and afternoon should anything come up during maintenance.It is not a patch day, so we can be reasonably sure nothing will come up,but you never know.

I was pleasantly surprised to see the maintenance announcement for tomorrow morning available fairly early today.Most of the time,we do not actually know whether there will be maintenance or not until pretty late in the evening. Or I am imagining that and this is the time we see it every week,who knows!

Daytime players will be happy to hear that most realms are only getting rolling restarts.They will be started at 5:00 AM PDT on North American realms and 10:00 AM PDT for Oceanic realms.There are a fair number of servers being hit with a real maintenance period,but it is only expected to take a few hours: Starting at 5:00 AM PDT and lasting until 8:00 AM PDT.Those realms are: Area 52,Arena Tournament 1,Arena Tournament 2,Auchindoun,Azuremyst,Blades Edge,Blood Furnace, Coilfang,Dawnbringer,Exodar,Fizzcrank,Galakrond,Ghostlands, Grizzly Hills,Shattered Halls,Terokkar,The Scryers,The Underbog,Velen,and Zangarmarsh.

If you are not sure what those times are in your time zone, the World Clock is a pretty simple tool to help you figure it out.
