(WTAQ-WLUK) – The U.S. Postal Service lists Wisconsin as among those areas where service could impacted by winter storms, but does not list any specific service interruptions for the state.
According to USPS website: “Snow and blizzard conditions in the Great Lakes and northeast regions of the U.S. (Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, West Virginia, New York, and Pennsylvania) may impact the processing, transportation, and delivery of mail and packages.”
However, on the USPS page listing specific residential disruptions, none are listed for Wisconsin.
Some people say they did not receive mail Monday. A spokesperson issued this statement:
The Postal Service continuously monitors weather conditions and reinforces safety guidance to help ensure employees can deliver mail as safely as possible while continuing to provide reliable service to our customers. USPS would like to remind customers the importance of keeping walkways, sidewalks, and areas around mailboxes clear from snow and ice so letter carriers can provide safe and timely mail delivery. Snow and patches of ice in front of mailboxes can make it difficult for letter carriers to safely deliver the mail. Residents maintaining a clear path to the mailbox — including steps, porches, walkways, and street approach — will help letter carriers maintain consistent delivery service. Customers receiving curbside delivery should also ensure clear access to their mailboxes for letter carriers who deliver from the street,” the USPS said.
