Winter storm leads to closed truck stops across South
A large winter storm that moved across the southern plains and southeast this week has wreaked havoc across the region from Texas and Oklahoma east to the Carolinas and Virginia. One of the biggest impacts for truck drivers is being seen with truck stop closures due to power outages and other issues.
Each of the three major truck stop chains – Love’s, TA-Petro and Pilot – have long lists of truck stops that are either closed, don’t have power, are low on fuel and more.
According to Pilot, the company has 34 locations in Texas, New Mexico, Louisiana and Mississippi that are closed due to power outages as of Tuesday afternoon. Drivers can find an updated list of closed locations here.
