Severe Snowstorms Impacting Midwest (Indiana, Ohio, Elsewhere)
We are among the many counties affected by travel restrictions and business closures in Indiana area. We have several orders with a ship date of today. We've been in touch with Amazon and received SOME positives assurances about account safety, although our late shipment rate will be effected (?). Obviously, this should not be counted against us. Our plant is closed by the county's rule and no carriers are going to be able to do pickups if they want to follow the law. Will Amazon announce anything about this? Today should not count as a shipping day. 30K + people out of power in many areas.
The storm is being covered in many national articles from sources like Forbes and many Midwest publications.

Unfortunately, Amazon will probably not mark today as a non-shipping day. It is up to you to anticipate major weather issues and put your account on vacation mode to help with the shipping late and accessibility issues.

In the past Amazon has granted forgiveness. So hoping they will now. Like you we have always had plans in place and successfully acted on those plans in the past, but this time nothing is getting through / out. Even the CVG is closed.

We are in the same situation. Our USPS driver did call us and say he was close to be able to pick up our outgoing shipments, but the office told him to stop mail delivery/pickup and come back to the office. If they lift the level 3 snow emergency, we will take it in to the post office, but then we have to wonder if they will still be open.

As for putting your account on vacation - there are a number of threads currently with people who did so for Christmas. When they came back and turned their accounts back to active, none of their products became live again. It's become a "which way do you want to risk losing at Amazon today" scenerio.

Noticed one of Amazons mods had time to delete a perfectly appropriate comment, yet didn't have the time to even comment on the issue nor handle it. Will Amazon be keeping it's promise? With the extra multiple days for ground transport across 1/3 of the nation will Amazon be doing something here?
Anyone want to explain? Anyone want to help? @Atlas_Amazon @Jameson_Amazon@KJ_Amazon etc?
