Already spotty supply in parts of Austin.
I have to admit I took the family fleet & filled 'em/toppd 'em up/off on Day 1. Took all the gas cans too. Plastic, steel, a couple of plastic milk jugs too when they weren't lookin'. tee, hee.
Just had to go to four different gas stations bitters and 281 area
Had all my trucks fill up at 6 this morning.
It made talk radio here so expect runs and hoarding. I assume the undamaged refineries around Corpus could be up early next week, but we freaked out over bottled water last week, so....
It's fucked up out there. Lines down the road at every gas station that still has gas.
Hope the rescuers don't run out.
bucees has gas :lol
Every station I've passed in the North Central/Stone Oak area
Filled up earlier and had to put in Premium because it was all they had. Stations running out of gas in the FW area.
starcrest/410
one generic gas station out, with price up from 1.95 to 2.29
the valero across 410 has gas but queue is into the street.
Well there wasn't a gas shortage. Now there will be
Damn I paid $1.97 a gallon to fill up my tank last Thursday. Now it's up to $2.45 at that station and the lines are horrendous and spilling into the street.

So it sounds like there really is no shortage. People are freaking out and gas stations cannot refuel fast enough. And prices will skyrocket because of this.
Holy shit -- really bad at 1604 and Braun area.
Thanks Donald.
I dunno. Was turning left off of I-10 at the McQueeney exit this afternoon and the Love Truckstop was turning around 18 wheelers because they were out of fuel. I doubt the truckers were panic buying.
Truckers aren't the only ones using diesel. I was just at the Valero in Bergheim and there was a line of about 20 diesel pickups. Guy said he had about 2000 gallons of diesel left, all the gas was already sold out. He said a tanker will be there to fill them up tomorrow just mass hysteria today.
Bunch of Fn idiots.
Rumor has it toilet paper runs out next.
Go raid the store Thread, with the BS you believe you'll need it.
Panicking wankers...
Passed 13 gas stations on way home. 7 were out of gas, the rest had lines down street.
I've seen about 4 cars in the side of the road with hazards on this morning. I'm guessing as to why
All the panicking is helping the situation. Everyone, hurry, go out and buy 12 gallons of milk and 50 bricks of 22 shells.
Waited about 7 minutes at stone oak/1604 valero. Don't know if that's lucky
