# Peak Season Opens With All Complexes at Flowing, No New Readings Published _Aug 11, 2026_ > No new port readings since last issue. LA/Long Beach, NY/NJ and Savannah all hold a Flowing import-friction read as peak season opens, with ship queues and truck indexes near trailing-12-month normals. _Numbers as of Aug 11, 2026 pull._ No new port readings have been published since the previous issue. The import-friction read at LA/Long Beach, NY/NJ and Savannah stands at Flowing at each complex, with ships-awaiting-berth counts and truck planning-time indexes each sitting near their trailing-12-month normals. The August-through-October peak season window is now open, when holiday inventory pull-forward typically lifts import volumes and can tighten berths and drayage windows.
