I am seeing some early signs of a possible Google search ranking algorithm update kicking off today, October 3, 2019.
There is some early chatter in the SEO forums, including WebmasterWorld and some on social media. Some of the tools are showing some fluctuations as well today, where some others have not updated yet.

Update: The tools are now showing more change but the chatter isn't that much in general:
Mozcast now showing hot weather:
SERPMetrics keeps going up:
Algoroo showing something:
