Because They're So Consistent

The Cav Hat that ended up being too small because I can't work a measuring tape took three days to ship from CavHooah.

Paid for 2-day Priority Mail.  Expected delivery shown was the 18th.

It left their local post office at 1:29pm on the 15th.
Arrived at their regional hub at 2:07am on the 16th.
Left their regional hub at 5:59am on the 16th.
Arrived at wrong Florida hub at 7:40am on the 17th.
Left wrong Florida hub at 10:55 on the 17th.
Arrived at correct Florida hub at 8:50pm on the 17th.
Left correct Florida hub at 11:16pm on the 17th.
Arrived at my local post office at 8:46am on the 18th.
Out for delivery at 8:57am on the 18th.
Delivered at my door at 6:38pm on the 18th.

The correct size hat is not moving so well.  Same 2-day priority mail.  Expected delivery shown is the 23rd.

It left their local post office at 2:41pm on the 20th.
It got to their regional hub at 2:35am this morning.
It left their regional hub at 9:06 am.

We're looking like Tuesday if they're consistent with last delivery's routing.  Even getting to the correct regional hub on the first try will still likely be Tuesday.

UPDATE:
Yup.  Status didn't change to anything local overnight, so no possible way it's out for delivery now.

There's a new banner on the USPS tracking page, it reads:

"Alert: Due to limited transportation availability as a result of nationwide COVID-19 impacts, package delivery times may be extended. Priority Mail Express® service will not change."
