Amid sporadic delays and office closures, postal officials say if you haven’t sent your greeting cards and packages already they are not like to arrive by Christmas, unless you send it by Priority or Express mail.
Mail delivery on Thursday was delayed in some spots due to impassable roads, especially in Schenectady and other locations, said spokeswoman Maureen Marion.
The Postal Service’s Albany District runs from the Berkshires to the Adirondack High Peaks to the Southern Tier over through the Finger Lakes.
