According to a ship-tracking site called Marine Exchange, the congestion of container ships at and outside the ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles has not been alleviated since President Joe Biden’s “24/7 operations” order in mid-October; in fact it has gotten still worse. Marine Exchange says there are now 168 ships of all kinds there, 103 of them “at anchor or loitering” and the rest in port. Of those, 111 are container ships, 81 of which are “at anchor or loitering.” There were 70 container ships at these ports in mid-September, and on Oct. 21 there were 107, which was the record until this report for Nov. 10.
