    Ask GWB how he is liking his usurper-in-chief, Joe Biden is handling the problem of the pipeline being shutdown? Gas shortages in North Carolina and other states. Isn't that where GWB is? I am sure you are loving your extreme liberal idol Joe Biden. Absent as usual. When they fix the problem, he will magically, come out and claim credit. Just watch for it!

    Plenty of gas shortage problems due to the pipeline issue in North Carolina. All the gas stations around me are out of gas. I filled up my car yesterday morning and only one gas station had fuel out of seven nearby (and they are out today).

    As more pumps run dry, NC officials plead with drivers not to gas up unless necessary
    https://www.wral.com/as-more-pumps-...vers-not-to-gas-up-unless-necessary/19673954/

    "Online site GasBuddy.com reported that more than two-thirds of North Carolina gas stations reported being out of fuel on Wednesday afternoon – by far the largest impact across the Southeast. Virginia was at 49 percent of stations empty, while Georgia and South Carolina were each at 45 percent."

    "On Wednesday morning, GasBuddy reported that 72 percent of stations in the Raleigh area had no gas available."

    Yep.Listened to a little Fox this morning to see what lies they were spewing today and they made it seem like it was 1979 again.I'm driving home every gas station has gas and gas prices are around 2.50-2.75.

    Once Dems end the filibuster and pack the court they need to pass a law banning Fox News.

    self inflicted wound. Scare fox viewers to create a panic hoard and drive up demand, like TP. Prolly a bit of corporate sabotage sprinkled on top for good measure.

    Getting gas in NC might ‘be a headache’ for up to 2 weeks, GasBuddy’s top analyst says
    https://www.cbs17.com/news/north-ca...for-up-to-2-weeks-gasbuddys-top-analyst-says/

    RALEIGH, N.C. (WNCN) — According to GasBuddy’s top analyst, Patrick De Haan, the news this morning for fuel availability in North Carolina isn’t as good as many hoped it would be.

    De Haan said that 71 percent of all North Carolina gas stations were without fuel as of early Thursday, down from 74 percent Wednesday night
    – but that’s not necessarily a reason to celebrate.

    As of 7 a.m. Thursday, GasBuddy said the following state’s gas stations are without gas:
    • Georgia: 49 percent
    • Alabama: 9 percent
    • Tennessee: 34 percent
    • South Carolina: 54 percent
    • North Carolina: 71 percent
    • Florida: 31 percent
    • Virginia: 55 percent
    • Maryland: 34 percent
    • Mississippi: 7 percent
    • West Virginia: 6 percent
    • Washington, D.C.: 47 percent
    • New Jersey: 1 percent
    • Delaware: 5 percent
    • Kentucky: 3 percent
    De Haan, said some areas in North Carolina saw improvements in outages overnight, including Raleigh, Charlotte, Greensboro and Wilmington. Raleigh is still hovering around 75 percent of stations without any available fuel.

    Data provided by GasBuddy showed that some areas of North Carolina saw gas availability down to less than 20 percent on Wednesday night and Thursday morning.



    De Haan went on to say that getting gas in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia and Georgia could “be a headache” for up to two weeks.

    “About 7-14 days of headaches if you need fuel in GA, NC, SC or VA. The situation will definitely take time and slowly improve due to a high number of outages and higher number of stations to refuel,” he tweeted.

    De Haan said that fuel outages should be less than 20 percent, hopefully, by Memorial Day weekend.
     
  9. This was a real ISSUE.... but it was localized only to select areas of the East Coast.

    I went to 4 gas stations before finding one to fill up and waited 30 minutes in line (was close to E so had no choice). Same stations had gas the day before. the pipeline issue was resolved last night but will take a few days for deliveries to refill gas station tanks and then we back to normal.

    But this was not some national country-wide shortage....

    It's mainly the hydrogen sulfide.
