From WRIP radio host Jay Fink, via the station's Facebook group:
The Greene County NY Code Red system was activated a short while ago to inform residents of anticipated short-term shortages of some grades of gasoline in and around Greene County. Supplies of gasoline have been diverted to the New York metropolitan area in response to the need for gas in that region for generators and transportation. County officials are monitoring the situation, especially for price gouging, and ask residents to please conserve gas whenever possible.
The Watershed Post is tracking reports of outages at gas stations around the Catskills with a Twitter-powered #CatskillsGas widget. Click this link to see the most recent reports.
If you have first-hand knowledge of a gas shortage at a local station, please let us know with an email to editor@watershedpost or tweet to @watershedpost. Please include the station, the date and time of your information, and a photo if you have one.
