You will find shortages in the north georgia area, metro nashville and Chattanooga stations also. Most of them are very spotty, but in the north georgia city where I am postmaster (ringgold), 7 out of 10 stations don't have any fuel in the ground. Diesel seems to be a little better.
Last week in Nashville, all stations finally ran out, and were out for two to three days before supplies started coming in. Then, as soon as they got a tanker, they would be empty in the ground within a couple of hours, due to the long lines to get fuel. I was up there on assignment for two weeks, and we had to hustle to make sure the mail fleet had fuel daily, to complete the deliveries.
As long as you plan ahead, try to hit mostly truck stops who have their own national supply chain, you should be alright. Word on the local news is that this situation should be relieved by end of week. Not as much supply concern, as it is bought as soon as it gets in the ground, and not enough trucks in a particular time frame to keep them supplied.
Good luck on your travels.
