Local Stations Running Out of Gas; Kings Park Stations Stay Fueled

No gas shortages as of noon in Kings Park.

Smithtown area gas stations started running out of gas on Friday, and locals bracing for the impact of winter storm Nemo took precautions in advance of potential power losses from the storm.

As of 11 a.m., the Hess Station on Route 347 and Mount Pleasant Road in Smithtown was drained of gas. The same was true at the nearby Gulf station at Route 347 and Southern Boulevard.

In St. James, the Gulf station on Lake Avenue only had premium fuel left, while nearby orange cones blocked the empty pumps at Smitty's fuel station.

However, as of noon Friday, at least three stations in Kings Park were reporting they had fuel and no lines; Eddie's Service Station,  San Remo Gulf and Valero all had gas.

Do you know of other stations that have run out? Add the info in the comments section.

Apparently you are not the only one this is happening to. From what I understand if these signs areRead More on a main drag somehow they are disappearing in the middle of the night. Hmmm, now I wonder who or what organization could be doing this illegal act? I'm not going to make an educated guess who could be involverd in this deed but I think if Kings Parkers do some research they are smart enough to figure out who does not want the real facts of the "Uplands Project" to come to light. Displaying these signs is a way of making the public aware of the atrocity of this project. Questions will then be asked. Making a night run to remove them is, at the least, a cowardly act that should be publicized every time it occurs!

That's funny, I spend a small fortune for school supplies for my kids. I am also asked to buy extraRead More for the kids who don't have., which I gladly do. The "society letting kids down" comment is a little over the top!!
