This shortage will be short lived – -and is being exasperated by human nature — many people swarming the stations to “top off” their tanks.

The main problem is that here in Atlanta we have to have a special low-sulfur blend mandated by law due to the pollution levels, and since that blend isn’t widely used is in less overall demand.

However — the pipeline that serves Atlanta is reportedly back up to 100% capacity, and QuickTrip says all their stations will have gas by Wednesday.
