Less gas, more frustration

Dealing with Ike ...

Gasoline-starved motorists hoping that the start of the week would bring good news faced a disappointing reality this morning -- there was little improvement over the weekend.

The second week of the region's gas shortage began just like the first week ended -- with promises that more gas is coming, but little fuel available.

Motorists reported most stations closed again Monday morning, with long lines forming at the few spots were gasoline was available.

When is relief coming?

Nobody seems to know.

Officials from local government, the AAA and gas suppliers told motorists Friday to use the gasoline they had and wait for the supply situation to improve over the weekend. But the improvement never came.
