OK does anybody have experience with DHL tracking? Here is the tracking so far. The package departed New Delhi, India, was transferred through Liepzig, Germany, and cleared customs in Cincinnati, Ohio all in one day. Mad props to DHL. I have never seen an international shipment move that fast. Usually customs clearance takes days or even a week. But anyway that is when things got messed up. The next day the tracking showed: "The shipment is being held and not expected to be moved or delivered on time due to a Force Majeure event with Weather". OK fair enough there was a bad ice storm in Ohio, and I guess the DHL flights were grounded. Anyway the package departed Cincinnati 24 hours later, and arrived in Portland, Oregon. Yesterday and again today, it is showing: "Forwarded for delivery". I'm guessing that means handed off to the USPS. Because I know my DHL packages are always delivered by the post office. But I tried to put the tracking number into USPS tracking and it just shows, "Status Not Available".
So anyway I'm trying to figure out if my package is still on time. It's still showing estimated delivery by Monday end of day, but it also said that it was not expected to be delivered on time due to the weather. I wish I could figure out how to track where it is now. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Thanks, the last tracking was Friday, November 16, 2018 23:26, Forwarded for delivery, Location: Portland, OR USA. I believe that means it was handed off to the USPS in Portland, but the tracking number is still not showing up on the USPS website. I also just tried it on UPS, but that didn't work either. It's still showing Estimated Delivery: Monday, November 19, 2018 By End of Day. I guess I'll just have to wait and see if it actually gets delivered on Monday.
I didn't think it was actually going to arrive today, but it did. It looks like the post office was just sitting on it from Friday night. And DHL seems to be trying to make it look like they delivered it themselves. So they just show all USPS updates as Forwarded for Delivery and finally Delivered. I wish they would just provide the USPS tracking number, then I would have known exactly where it was and when it was going to get here. The post office tells me to within two hours of when they are going to deliver it. This way I didn't know anything after it arrived in Portland.
Check your front porch. USPS delivers packages to your door on Sunday.
Typically just Amazon packages. Although now in districts without enough carriers to deliver everywhere 6 days a week as mandated you will see regular deliveries of letters on Sundays as units attempt to work off their back loads.
