(WISH) — Severe weather across parts of the nation is delaying the mail in 15 states, including Indiana, the U.S. Postal Service has announced.
Posted in its website about 10 p.m.: “The United States Postal Service (USPS) has announced that the processing, transportation, and delivery of mail and packages may be disrupted due to severe weather conditions affecting a wide range of states including Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Tennessee, Mississippi, Kansas, Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Iowa, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and New York.”
That’s all the details provided.
Got problems with your mail?
Residential customers were advised to check Postal Service’s Mail Service Disruptions website for the latest updates on mail delivery status in their area or call 800-275-8777 for assistance, which provides frequently updated information regarding whether mail is being delivered to specific neighborhoods and the operational status of local post offices.
Business mailers have access to more detailed information about Postal Service mail processing facilities and the operating status of delivery units. They can also find out about any impacts on mail delivery overseas. To report a service disruption, business mailers are encouraged to contact their local “Business Service Network Representative” or visit PostalPro.
Fun fact: “Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds.” That’s not the official motto of the U.S. Postal Service, but it was widely cited after being inscribed in the 1910s on the James A. Farley Post Office Building in New York City.
