What most people are missing about this "processing date" is that the time frame from when it said November to December was less than a week....so they seem to be breezing through those "months" and we should probably see that December time frame change to January soon.

If we see it change to January within this week, we can safely assume they are cranking through them and will be caught up in no time at all.

Trying to think positive and realistic here.

When I look at Igors list and the other timelines, November, December and January are mostly adjudicated already. I just think it is an automatic fallback. If November, December just showed up now, it doesn't really make sense to me because those applications already existed when the 5 months was showing and nothing is new. January, February March etc applications just stacks up behind some of the older ones and to me it seems that they cannot adjudicate them as a whole at this point (not including expedites).
