A lot of supplies have now recovered and about half of the local gas stations seem to have fuel based on my unscientific guess while driving around. A lot are still totally dry. But even with a lot of stations still without gasoline, the lines have disappeared. It has probably been 3 or 4 days since I’ve seen a line for a gas pump. In fact, I’ve seen some stations with gas and no one is at any of the pumps.

So what does this all mean? To me, it means that we have too many gas stations. If the number of gas stations that are currently serving fuel were not sufficient to fulfill demand, there would be lines. Since there aren’t lines, that means there is a sufficient amount of fuel, and more importantly, enough available distribution locations for the current level of consumption.
