Post Office: Storm May Delay Mail Delivery
November 10, 2009
Some areas hard hit by Ida may see short-term delays in mail delivery on Tuesday, according to the U.S. Postal Service.
Mail may arrive later in the day than normal or, in heavily impacted areas, mail delivery may be delayed until after Veterans Day, Wednesday, November 11.
Closed evacuation areas, flooded roads, and fallen trees may put some homes and businesses temporarily out of reach. Postal officials, however, stress that everything possible will be done to keep disruptions to an absolute minimum.
Postal officials also note that some 24-hour Post Office Box Service lobbies will be locked tonight and early Tuesday to minimize flooding by heavy wind and rain. Also, some blue mail collection boxes will be sealed tonight and early tomorrow to prevent mail from being deposited and possibly damaged by the storm.
Wednesday, November 11 is Veterans Day. Post Offices will be closed and there will be no regular mail delivery. Retail and delivery services will resume Thursday, November 12.
