SEO practitioner JoyanneHawkins noticed multiple sites showing massive traffic spikes in Google Search Console (screenshot shows impressions surging to 100K+/day), but the patterns seemed odd and it was unclear whether the traffic was real. She followed up the next day: "Today it's back to normal." Shared by gaganghotra.
Likely an anomaly or tracking change on Google's side — worth checking your own Search Console data if you rely on organic search.
