FAIRMONT — Gasoline is still flowing in West Virginia, despite the disruptions in southern states.
A cyberattack on Friday hit the Colonial Pipeline, which delivers about 45% of the fuel consumed on the East Coast. The attack caused a ripple of disruptions in southern states, leading to panic-buying and stations being bought out of their supplies.
“What you’re feeling is not a lack of supply or a supply issue. What we have is a transportation issue,” said Jeanette McGee, spokeswoman for the AAA auto club in an interview with the Associated Press. “There is ample supply to fuel the United States for the summer, but what we’re having an issue with is getting it to those gas stations because the pipeline is down.” ....

Government and industry officials reiterated Wednesday that there is no gasoline shortage but that “panic buying” of gasoline has resulted in shortages at some gas stations on the East Coast, and officials are asking motorists to only buy as much gasoline as they need.
This comes after a cyberattack last week on the Colonial Pipeline, the nation’s largest fuel pipeline caused it to shut down its operations on Friday. Hackers linked to Russia locked up computer systems and demanded a ransom to release them. ....
