Will Marlborough Have Mail Today?

The brunt of the storm is behind us, but will you see your mail today?

An inquisitive reader asked if mail delivery will happen today after so much snow overnight.

The ban extends throughout all six New England states. The unusual decision was made due to safety concerns, according to Postal Service spokeswoman Christine Dugas.

The decision came after over two feet of snow falling throughout much of New England made many roads impassable, she said. She reminded people to clear around their mailboxes or paths to their homes by Monday when mail delivery will resume.
