TOWN OF CHESTER, N.Y. – There’s a gas crunch in the Town of Chester, with long lines and lots of frustration for folks trying to fill up.

At one Mobile station, people were waiting 45 minutes to an hour to get to the pump. They were trying to not only fuel up their cars, but also get gasoline for their home generators. One person was seen pumping gas into water jugs.

People from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York City also came to the Chester station to fill up. At one Mobile station, a worker says they haven't had a problem keeping up with the supply needed.
