Well it seems localized to the SE so probably not ..................... think I was wrong.
I read that refinries in Texas are still slow to come up after Ike and Lousiana is not 100% after Gustav ............ was reading we could have 2-3 weeks of the same. Gas goes through the pipeline at 3-4 mph.
At the risk of sounding repetitive...WHERE can I get gas? I know a few stations on 521 south have some...What about closer to the town of Lancaster?? Anyone know?

At the intersection of Doby's Bridge rd and 521 where the IndianLand HS is there is a gas station that had gas and short lines when I was there about 9:10 this am. Good Luck.
The BP on Celense and India Hook had gas and a line, the Valeo of Celenese right off I77 had gas and huge line, the Race Way on Cherry near I77 also had some once again a LONG line. This was today about 130pm
There is gas at EXIT 11 off I-20. Aiken County is doing pretty well. It seems if you go to the stations late you get in and out. Prices are pretty good. There is a Realtor with Olde South Realty in North AUgusta that gives us updates. If you are traveling West from Columbia stop in Aiken County, Exit 11, 5, or 1. GO USC, and I don't mean those out west imposters.
The BP in Startown has some... There were around 50+ cars at the Exxon in Startown, most of which had broken down in the parking lot... it was like a ghost town of empty cars all lined and tangled up in the parking lot... Finally a gas truck came around 7:30 and police had to direct traffic to prevent car wrecks... People are starting to get desperate... It's a little scary!
So what the heck is Sanford doing about this? At least Easley is trucking down some to Charlotte from Wilmington. That would at least help us some down here but Sanford has to have some plan doesn't he?
Okay, I guess I'm just dense. Why is it localized in the South East? Is there only ONE pipeline out of Houston????? I've been talking to family in Calif, Idaho and the MidWest and everyone seemed surprised that we were having a shortage. They all seem to have gas and the prices are FALLING. Did no one know this was gonna happen? Did it have to get this bad?
