For example, on January 9, 2010, a 6.5 magnitude earthquake struck just off the shore of northern California. This caused the Eureka Post Office in downtown Eureka to close. However, mail delivery did continue on that day.
Due to weather and other unforeseen events, post offices may close or delay service. Weather and natural events often cause problems for delivery services, including the US Postal Service.
On MLK Jr. Day, President's Day, Columbus Day, and Veterans Day, other delivery services such as UPS and FedEx (Federal Express) do not observe those holidays and will be open for regular delivery.

On Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve, many post offices will hold holiday shortened hours by closing at noon. However, main post offices in the area may continue to offer their normal business hours. Mail delivery will not be affected by the early holiday closures.

On Thursday, April 15th, 2010,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], some post offices will be open until midnight to accept mail including federal and state tax returns. Only those who deliver their tax returns envelopes to one of the open post offices will get an April 15th, 2010 postmark. Mail dropped off in other mailboxes and at closed post offices after normal closing hours will be postmarked late.
According to the Associated Press, the United Postal Service has run a budget deficit into the billions of dollars. In the future, the USPS may be looking to cut the delivery schedule to a five day schedule. This does not necessarily mean that Saturday would be picked as the delivery day to be cut. However, the internet and the current recession may cause a change in the USPS delivery schedule in the near future.
