Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

It really worries me since everything I get in my area comes via the Memphis hub.

I can shed a little light on why it sat there all day. I don't work for FedEx but do work for UPS' Next Day operations here in Louisville.
If the package didn't get there until 6:48 in the morning then it had already missed all of the outbound flights for the day. Yes, there would be another round of flights later in the afternoon but those would be servicing the 2 Day and 3 Day volume. Next day volume is seldom able to be sent with the 2 and 3 day volume. Often times if it were it would be delayed another day. It's actually quicker to be held in Memphis for the day, strange as that may seem.

Well, I have been keeping track of a snake I am being sent from Cali, and sure enough, it is now in memphis... I hope what Jerry said above is true... Hopefully since it got there at 1:20 am it should stay on schedule. I guess we will see.

Oh, I forgot to reply to this before. The snake I ordered got here on schedule. It arrived at the Memphis hub at about 1:30 am and left a few hours later. Can you check the tracking for your package and see what time it arrived there?

No problem shipping Fedex,I use priority and std overnight with great results.
I do know there were delays due to massive flooding then tornado's. and frankly that's understandable.

Just FYI ALL FedEx overnight packages go through Memphis hub, regardless of origination or destination.

Actually that is not 100% accurate. If you are shipping from a major city, and just within state, your package will likely not leave the state on Priority Overnight shipments.
Shipping from Denver to another city in Colorado, for example. Houston to another city in Texas, etc.

Still not 100% accurate. It DOES depend on your origin and destination. If I have a package coming from the northeast, Atlantic coast or upper midwest it comes through Indianapolis. From the south, southwest or west coast it comes through Memphis.

Also correct, Indianapolis is also a hub : )

Since we are getting particular there is one in California as well. Anything I get from the western states obviously gets held there instead of going all the way to Memphis.
