From what I have read, shipping deliveries were already delayed prior to Christmas, so with this latest storm, they've probably not been able to catch up yet. I read that FedEx and UPS were having problems. I'm a little surprised that anyone in the storm areas would expect mail at all. I guess it would depend where it's coming from and the route it takes to get there... e.g. planes, trucks, whatevers.
Weird thing is that we ordered some vitamins from the US prior to Christmas and they arrived at my door only a few days later. LOL
I guess it was easier to fly out of your country than in your country.
edited to add: just found this.
