How much has production actually been disrupted? I am awaiting a build date around Jan 14th or so. How much will this planned holiday and the tornado shutdown delay my build day?

My guess is the holiday shutdown was factored into your build date...so nothing should change, but just guessing!
My understanding was that they only worked 1 shift instead of 2 per day the week after the storm. Figure accordingly.
Also all the cars lost will not be put to the very front of the line, but will be put in as quickly as those cars that were already sequenced have been producted.
They lost about 1 shift worth of cars from the storm.

Sucks to have your build date delayed, but some things were just out of GMs control. The delay should not have too much of an impact on getting your car built.

Your guess is as good as mine.
According to the production statistics (2022 Production Spreadsheet), they produced an average of 176 per day for the 4 work day week of 12/20. That's only slightly down from a full 2 shifts output.
