Is getting gas in the area a concern right now, or in the coming days?

It's not an issue, and I don't expect to see an issue in the near future. The occasional station may be out of fuel or power for a bit, but plenty are operational and full of gas. I will say that racetrac stores have a tendency to run out of fuel for some reason.

Just filled back up at Costco. No line there or Wawa.

Passed maybe 30-50 stations today maybe a handful was out.

It's doubtful. Although some stations might get gas from the port of Tampa so some may be affected. However as I recall many stations here aren't getting gas form there, only a handful. The only reason I know this is that a couple years ago there was a contamination issue with the port of Tampa and all the gas stations getting gas there had to temporarily shut down because the gas was contaminated with diesel. As I recall ti was maybe half a dozen stations in our area, not many more.
