I'm not sure if it's a separate issue but I've had trouble creating new VM instances in Google Cloud Console or listing GPU types using their CLI and I'm in europe-west-2. The ticket I was following originally got merged with the Paris flood ticket (by Google). It was working until midnight (London) last night but went down before 8am before recovering about 1h ago for me. Not sure why an outage at one regional data centre can affect services elsewhere in the zone. Perhaps it's when pooling together meta data from different data centers for listing options?

Also, consider everyone either automatically or manually trying to make up for the lost capacity in eu.
Every customer of affected region try to restore data/compute in other regions. It's quite known and expected issue in case of region loss.
Cloud Console is having issues related to the outage in europe-west9

> Customer using Cloud Console globally are unable to open and view the Compute Engine related pages like: Instance creation page Disk creation page Instance templates page Instance Groups page

I got errors trying to open the instance group list and we don't have any resources in europe-west9.
Same – was unable to create new VMs in all regions between 7:15am and 11:41am UK time. Not limited to France.
