Did UPS get rid of the live delivery map?
Ground map frequently wrong?

Is UPS down today?
UPS status page says the service is up, but I'm having issues. What's wrong?
There may be several reasons for that:
- An outage that hasn't been communicated yet via the UPS status page.
- Some local issues with a small group of accounts on the service side.
- Technical issues on your side, or problems with your software or ISP.
- A misconfiguration or problem on your side.
We recommend contacting UPS customer support while checking everything on your side.

I know obviously no one here can give a specific answer as to what's going on but I have been following on the map on the UPS app my delivery. It had shown that the truck was on my street like two or three blocks away. Then all the sudden I got this message: "Delay: Emergency situation or severe weather." There is currently no severe weather, though we did have a snowstorm over the weekend. Does anyone have a general idea of what could be going? TIA
I get packages delivered frequently by UPS. Within maybe the last month or so I've noticed that when the package is out for delivery I am no longer getting the option to track the progress on the live map. This has been happening with UPS Ground packages and is happening right now with a UPS Next Day Air Saver package which is out for delivery right now. I checked within the app and I am not seeing the option to track on live map and I also checked on my PC through the UPS website. Has anyone else experienced this problem recently?
Our shipping process is to look at the ground map for FedEx and UPS (https://www.ups.com/maps?loc=en_US) and generally choose the faster service. The UPS ground maps differ, sometimes significantly, from the delivery time provided when preparing a shipment on ups.com.
Example - 66211 to 08691. Map when shipping from 66211 shows delivery in three days. Preparing the shipment on ups.com shows delivery in five days.
Any idea how to get an accurate ground map?
Hello all,
I have fallen victim to the "severe weather conditions have delayed delivery." I had scheduled my day around the delivery, using vacation day from work, to be sure to be home. I did call because it is 60 and sunny, and I was just going to have it held at the hub for pickup since it's 15 mins away. Rep told me all hub customer services had been closed off to the public. Is this true and why on earth are there so many delays being posted?
I get a map that pops up in my app about half the time. Sometimes the 3 promps (on the road, in your area, almost there) work great. Sometimes they never move at all and sometimes i don't get any map. Is this the specific truck that determines if this works? Is it my service level or maybe the driver? I'd like to understand it if at all possible thanks.
