The temporary pipeline in alabama should be ready to go tonight refuelling the supply chain stopped by a recent leak. Gray hall has the details here. Reporter well, while aaa says we felt the impacts we actually dodged a bullet. But places in the south like georgia saw gas prices go up 22 cents in one week. Drivers in delaware noticed the highest jump at the pump 900 miles away in alabama at the colonial pipeline. Gas prices bounced up 11 cents in delaware and philadelphia a 4 cents jump and south jersey up 3 cents in the last week. Colonial pipeline is a conduit to gasoline from the east coast from houston to new york. People have felt the impact of this week and closure in the past week and a half or so. In this area we are not feeling it the way we feel is down south. The major pipeline supplies gas to the eastern seaboard, things were not as severe in our area but we saw an increase at the pump as a result. Well see prices increase for the next day or two, until the supplies get back to full capacity. Gas leak and closure in a pipeline like this, is one of those unseen supply and distribution interruptions into aaa talks about. The recent increase even a small one took money from their pockets. You save a penny wherever you can. You will ride for the cheapest price. Workers are able to make repairs to the pipeline that means gas will throw as normal and over the next several days prices will decrease. Currently the National Average is 2. 21 and pennsylvania 2. 42 and the cheapest is new jersey where the average is 2. Reporter back out live, not clear what caused the pipe like, but prices will decrease over the next several days or so and relief in the next couple of days or so. And in the cooler month. The stations will use the less exceptionive winter blend and that trickles down to the customers meaning cheaper prices. Thank you gray. 6 abc switching gear taking you inside of the forecast.

Close to 19. 5 mile as above the surface of the earth. The lowest temperature it records was 83 degrees below zero and the maximum wind is 99 Miles Per Hour and overall light for this time of year, typically it can get close to 150 to 200 Miles Per Hour. And the distance from the launch to where it landed was 34 miles and that is kind of small because the winds were not all that strong and it can actually land close to 100 miles or so from the launch site. This is some of the information that came in. This is what we call a skew t, its a bunch of squiggly lines to the left and right to you. But it records the wind speed and direction from where it burst and records the temperature, you see the line squiggling going from the right to left as the temperature decreases as it goes up into space and the same with the dew point, that is the pressure there, we look at this kind of data every single day here at channel 6 to put the forecast together and information like this is also ingested into the weather model.
