Will I get this package in time?

Question

It's about a 5 pound package that was shipped at 2PM yesterday via USPS Priority (2-3 days). I'm leaving on a trip on Thursday morning.

Do you think I will get it in time?

Answer 1

It looks iffy at best.

3 days from Monday is Thursday.

It depends how far apart the sender and receiver are.

If the distance isn't more than (guessing here) 1500

miles, I'd say it's about 50-50.  Farther than that,

there's a good chance it will arrive in Thursday's

mail, but that may be too late.  (or possibly Friday)

I normally figure coast-to-coast takes 3 days for First Class Mail.
