Huge dip in npm libraries/framework downloads. Anyone know why?

When looking at npmtrends.com, I've noticed that nearly every npm library/framework took a huge dip in downloads at the beginning of June, 2018.

Does anyone know why this is? Maybe npm went down or everyone took a break for the summer?

It appears to have been a problem in updating the counts on npm, Inc.'s side:
