UPS Delays Today

Below are current UPS-related alerts and any severe-weather alerts that could affect UPS deliveries right now.

Note: UPS does not publish a reliably machine-readable service-alert feed, so carrier-specific UPS alerts may not always appear here even when weather is affecting service. Always check the weather alerts and your tracking.

What can delay a UPS package

Severe weather, high seasonal volume, an address problem, or a missed delivery attempt are the most common causes. Weather alerts below cover the biggest nationwide factor.

Remember: a nationwide alert doesn't mean your specific package is delayed — it's just one possible factor. Track your package for its real status.

Questions & answers

Why don't I see UPS-specific alerts here?

UPS's alert page isn't available in a reliable automated format, so we can't always pull carrier-specific UPS notices. We still show severe-weather alerts that commonly affect UPS deliveries.
