Typically in the winter, the demand for gas goes down, making it cheaper, but because of this issue, Maryland drivers are now paying more than the national average. A leak in the Colonial Pipeline was first reported in early September, disrupting the supply of gasoline up and down the east coast.
“That has eliminated one point three million barrels of gasoline a day for distribution so you can imagine all the drivers impacted,” said AAA spokeswoman Christine Delise.
Gas prices typically trend down in colder months, but this leak is forcing prices to go up.
