We noted an error earlier this evening which was causing the Lake Wintergrasp PvP zone to be reset prematurely. Since ending epic battles early is a bad thing, Blizzard has gone ahead and "shut off Wintergrasp" completely for the time being.This change is affecting all realms.
There is no word when a fix will come through, but we're hopeful it will happen sometime soon. Disabling an entire part of the game is a big thing, and an error that usually is corrected quickly.
Some speculation points to the change in daily (now weekly) quests that just went in, however there is no evidence to support this.

Yesterday on Steamwheedle Cartel the battle seemed to start up as normal, but the portal didn't appear in Dalaran, so we flew out (despite being on defense) only to find that the timer was stuck at 0:00 the entire time. We held out for about 45 minutes before the Alliance finally broke through... The buff & shards definitely seem alive and well.
