Drivers fueled up at the Exxon station on Reems Creek Road Tuesday morning. The Weaverville Tribune Blog is reporting the station was out of gas before 1 p.m., despite limiting the amount drivers could purchase at one time. Gas remains in short supply in the region, with reports of none to be found in Weaverville as of Tuesday afternoon.  Some analysts are saying the shortages in the area “should disappear in the next week, once the Gulf Coast refineries resume normal production levels.” I don’t know who these analysts are, but let’s hope they’re right.

In the meantime, the Citizen-Times is maintaining a list of stations which have gas, based on reader input.
