...sure, simple supply and demand. I did go into the season with a full tank. I have other means of keeping warm as well. 300 gallons will get me through the season if I need. I’m just not sure if I should wait until April or fill it now.

There are at least 4 governors that have declared the propane situation as a state-of-emergency.

One of those states is Louisiana, which has refineries and access the Mississippi River for sending barges North.

I imagine the propane shortage will get attention by the private sector, but the severe weather may affect getting the propane North by barge/rail/truck...

Maybe having a wood burning stove would be an alternative, but the initial cost might be a SEVERE hinderance...
