Wildfires in Southern California - October, 2007

Wildfires continue to wreak havoc in southern California, forcing the evacuation and closure of Post Offices throughout the area. As a result, retail service and mail delivery was cancelled or curtailed in a number of locations. This mail is being staged and will be delivered as soon as evacuation orders are rescinded and employees and residents can return. Over the next two days, the Postal Service will consider alternate mail pick-up locations.
