Gasoline shortage

[nivek]

This has affected my area, half the gas pumps are shutdown, all the BP and Sheets gas stores are shutdown around me.. I expect prices to rise this week..

The pipeline should be fixed in about a week so things will likely return to 'normal' within 3 to 4 weeks..

Motorists in the Southeast and East could pay more for gasoline in coming days because of the shutdown of a leaking pipeline in Alabama.

Alabama Pipeline Shutdown Could Send Gas Prices Higher

The shortage could trigger a double disaster if there's a hurricane in the area and people don't gas to get out.
