This is pretty accurate imo.

I just got in a few minutes ago, the stations still look crowded as Hell.

I wasn't able to get out and get some ass tonight, but I was lucky enough to see a tanker truck pull into a station and was in and out in just a few minutes. My penis is so jealous. And if the tanker trucks are still coming in, there isn't any significant shortage. It just a panic spike in demand.

I think this is largely self inflicted. People panicked and caused the gas shortage themselves.

I am looking at Gas Buddy tracker and many areas I looked at last night while searching for a gas station for Analeese above, that didn't have gas then now do have gas, including stations in Addison.

I was able to gas up this morning at a RaceTrac. They seem to be getting gas fairly consistently. I used the Gas Buddy tracker.

I've been though gas shortages before when I lived overseas. I'd suggest that you go out and get enough grocery shopping to get through one to two weeks, just in case.

I drove by one station this morning, still out of gas. while I agree this shortage was self-inflicted, the media and Government officials were behind the curve.. I had heard nothing late morning yesterday, but I observed several stations backed up with cars, and that told me I needed to act.. "what did they hear that I didn't"? meanwhile I was listening to news radio, not a word about shortages, nothing about lines forming.

this morning the RR Commissioner was on the radio, he made a lot of sense, and said the crisis should resolve in days.. but the Wednesday night newspaper reports of fuel shortages looming should have been responded to immediately.

We temporarily lost a small fraction of our refining and distribution capacity and people reacted as though we lost all ability to obtain fuel for the next month LOL.

[mrredcat43]

No lines, people going crazy, and all gas stations have fuel......all the way out in Weatherford.

[dallasfan]

The dallas and surrounding area seems to be the only area it's affecting. Lol. Must be like a flash mob affect.

Plenty of open pumps at 5am

[PeterBota]

I am gas

[CG2014]

Those same gas stations that were dry yesterday around 8:24 pm when I checked the tracker and then some of them had gas this morning at 7:40 am when I checked the tracker again are now out of gas again.

the Valero at Maham and 75 still had gas just a few minutes ago. I filled up....had to wait about 15 minutes or so.
