Gasoline Shortages Friday Across S. Dakota, Sioux Falls TV Station Reports

For most of us, rising prices have been the major concern when it comes to gas. But on Friday, it was a different problem plaguing some Sioux Falls drivers. As people pulled up to a gas station is southeast Sioux Falls, they were greeted with signs they didn't expect. Stations out of gas because of a shortage.

Gas terminals are empty across South Dakota. From Sioux Falls to Yankton to Sioux City, they are all out. And tankers cannot find anywhere to fill up.

"More so this summer it seems and they're saying it's supposed to get worse before it gets better but there's just not enough fuel coming down the pipeline into the delivery system," said BP owner Shane Oien.

Some gas stations in town are running low because of this and some are already out. The BP on Marson and Southeast Street ran out of 87 and 89 grades of gasoline Friday because of the shortage. A small amount of premium was still available, but most took one look at the price and looked for a new place to go.
