Most of the gas stations here in Tallahassee are out of gas.
I tried to fill up about 40 miles north of my house in SW Florida.
All. Pumps. Dry.
I almost ran out of gas getting down to my exit, where there was gas available.
I hear the stations in my county get their fuel from a different source than the next county up, which might explain availability. This just might be a rumour of course; I don't know.
I hope the get the refineries up and running soon.

Yesterday gas was $3.89. Today at the very same gas station, gas is $4.39. It amazes me how the cost of the gas already in the station's underground tanks can change so drastically from day to day. This is rediculous.

BTS--- In reference to that news article, I live in Knoxville and driving by several gas stations and even several highway exits I noticed no increase in customers at the pumps, I didn't even see any gas stations out of gas, although the shell up the road was out of mid grade and premium. What I did see was mostly $4.99 gas, with quite a few $5.09 gas. On one highway exit there were 2 stations selling for $4.49, 2 Stations selling for $4.99 and one for $5.09.
All of the stations at my exit are $4.99.
This is also happening in Ohio as my Mom said that gas there was $4.99.
I called my cousin in Kentucky to see how high gas was there, and it was $3.99, Why the difference? because the state government started cracking down on price gouging.
Tennessee is home to the Pilot Fuel Company, and they were the first to raise their prices.
