Dear Joe:

Thank you for contacting FedEx. We regret any inconvenience you experienced as a result of this situation.

Unfortunately, inclement weather conditions throughout the United States have and continue to cause disruptions within the FedEx routing system. Packages are being delivered as quickly as possible.

You may wish to continue monitoring your shipment to obtain updated status by using our online tracking page:http://www.fedex.com/us/tracking

Thank you for your patience in this matter, and for shipping with FedEx.

Peter B.

Gee. And I just checked with some people I know if both Seattle and Portland and was told the weather and roads have been better the past couple of days. Maybe if they would have called all their employees who were off today and said, "Hey! We've had bad weather and we are backed up on deliveries. Come in and let's get these delivered." people wouldn't be so pissed.
