Gas Buddy also has a gas tracker map detailing the status of most stations.

At the Wawa on Radio Road in Naples, the line to get gas was wrapped around the building and into the roadway as people were waiting desperately to get gas.

"I'm not surprised when it's the only gas station in the area that's open, everyone's going to flock to the area just to see what they can get," Zack Mahanke said.

Many people waited in the line for hours for gas only to realize at the pump the station ran out.

"I know a lot more people are still waiting in line, so there's probably going to be a lot more {sic} angry people," Kelsey Kornek said.

We're told dozens of tanker trucks were sent out for delivery Monday.Traffic was so hectic outside this Wawa in Naples, there was even a fender bender in front of the gas station.
