There's a fair few ways that have not been tagged with a highway tag in
those areas.  Streets will only get rendered if they have a recognised tag
like highway=unclassified or something.

Also, the tiles at home rendering farm is suspended at present while the
database is being reorganised.  Once it restarts, in the next day or so,
there will be a backlog of tiles to upload, so it could be three or four
days from now before tiles at home is running normally again (depending on how
much of an improvement the database reorganisation makes to performance).

If you want to get some quicker rendering of your work its quite easy to
install and run Osmarender locally.  You can see results within a few
minutes if you do that.
