Google Analytics Broken Hero

Google Analytics seems to have another bug, this time with data missing from the main charts. September 1, 2026 data is showing zero traffic to websites; I believe this is across every Google Analytics install.

I see tons of complaints about this in the Google Analytics Forums, WebmasterWorld and on various social media platforms.

Here is a chart showing the charts dropping to zero:

Ga Zero

Here are just some of the people who notified me of this:

Dana DiTomaso, a Google Analytics expert, I believe saw this coming yesterday when she posted on LinkedIn saying:

It looks like Google Analytics is having an issue with processing yesterday's (August 31st) data. I'm seeing this pattern across multiple client accounts, so if you see this don't panic (I panicked) and hopefully it is resolved soon!

Anyway, the good news is that it seems to be impacting everyone but the bad news is, you are impacted. It is a Google bug, nothing for you to do on your end.
