Delivery will resume once conditions improve and it is safe to do so. We encourage customers to clear the snow and ice from their walkways, stairs, and driveways, to ensure safe access to the front door for both their visitors, as well as their mail carriers, when service resumes.”
The release continues with: “A Red Alert means we are suspending delivery for the day and not sending our delivery agents out as the weather conditions have made it unsafe.”
