First noticed this morning, the GFCI button installed in a wall outlet
in one of my bathrooms keeps popping out. This renders all the
bathroom sockets inoperable.

Is this a serious problem and what would be the likely cause and
solution? Thanks for info.

It may be moisture in an outside or garage outlet tripping it. Take a
hair dryer connected to a HEAVY extension cord plugged into an inside
outlet. Blow hot air from the hair dryer into ALL outside and garage
outlets. Do the same with the bathroom and kitchen outlets. If that
does not stop the tripping, call an electrician.
