Dear Valued Customers,
A significant severe weather outbreak is expected to impact the Central U.S. later this week, bringing the potential for damaging winds, large hail, and tornadoes. According to AccuWeather, this storm system could create widespread disruptions across major freight routes.
What This Means for Your Shipments:
- Potential Delays: Severe weather may cause road closures, reroutes, and extended transit times. Please expect widespread delays across the country, even in areas that are not directly impacted by this storm.
