EC2 - High CPU and High Disk Reads - Crash

For some reason today my EC2 server keeps hitting 100% CPU and high disk reads. I've turned all of my cronjobs off, and yet it's still happening. My Database is an RDS outside the server. Any initial items I should check? I'm using PHP scripts for my cronjobs (8 seperate scripts that run anywhere from every 5 minutes to twice a day).

Both happen at the same time. I've also attached a screenshot of what shows when I run top.

If it is happening right now, run top to see if it is actually a PHP script: Maybe it's some other process.

If you can't catch it on the act, I suggest you set up atop to provide the same data in retrospect.
