It appears that all realms aside from those which are still scheduled to receive improvements for Cataclysm should be up and available now.

Q u o t e:
All realms that were scheduled to be live at 11:00 AM PST are undergoing additional testing. We’re currently anticipating that they’ll be live and playable by approximately 1:00 PM PST. We apologize for the delay and are working to have the realms live and playable as soon as possible.

Greetings all!
As you are well aware, we have exceeded the 11:00 AM estimate for when realms would be available following the maintenance period. Currently, we hope to make realms available by 12:00 PM PST, but this estimate is tentative and subject to change.
Thank you for your patience in the meantime, and I'll provide further updates as soon as they become available.

Good Morning CSF!

Thank you for your Patience.
Do remember that when realms are unavailable, paid services normally are as well. Character, faction transfers, etc. Also, the times quoted are ESTIMATES, realms may return a bit earlier, or later than currently estimated.
World of Warcraft forums may also experience periodic episodes of unavailability.
Maintenance is always a golden opportunity to do all those little maintenance chores on your own systems. Make sure your OS, Flash, etc. are all updated, scan, etc.

No, but seriously—why Tuesday?

Also, here is a handy time conversation table for timezones.
As all maintenance schedules are provided in PDT, should you not live on the pacific coast, you will need to adjust this time accordingly. :)
- Here's a quick table to reference:
HST = PDT - 3 hours
MDT = PDT + 1 hour
CDT = PDT + 2 hours
EDT = PDT + 3 hours
ADT = PDT + 4 hours
Newfoundland = PDT + 4.5 hours
GMT = PDT + 7 hours
AEST = PDT + 17 hours
