They just issued an alert due to winter weather. So they won't.

Does the weather prevent them from updating the tracking info?

I've had a package sitting in Yakima for 6 days that hasn't been delivered yet.

Good luck with that. All bets are off when there are weather related "service exceptions."

I had an item coming to the house, standard/ground delivery, obviously was going to be a UPS to USPS handoff. On Sunday morning I got a USPS Informed Delivery notification saying they were delivering it that day. Shortly thereafter I got a UPS delivery exception notification saying it was delayed. Log into the USPS website and see a bunch of weird time scans with "business location closed" notes and things like that. Didn't show up on Sunday. Monday, of course, was a USPS holiday, so even though they said they were initially delivering it on Sunday, no way they're out making deliveries on Monday. Tuesday morning I get another USPS Informed Delivery saying the package is scheduled for delivery on Wednesday. My carrier delivered it on Tuesday.

And heaven help you if your package is with UPS and it ends up in the "sort trailer" during a weather service exception event. It's going to sit there until the terminal is caught back up, since it has already broken the service level agreement. It's happened to me several times with our local terminals.
