Reports are differing on when the Asheville gas crisis will ease up. What do you think?

Business Week says a week:

Officials in the Asheville area say they don’t expect fuel to begin flowing normally again for at least another week and are urging drivers to conserve gasoline.

Mother Jones, quoting the Asheville Citizen-Times, says the end of the month: a month    

Because of its relatively remote location high in the Blue Ridge mountains, county officials estimate that shortages in the Asheville area will continue at least through the end of the month.

The Hendersonville Times News says a day:

Some relief should come Wednesday, Henderson County Chamber of Commerce officials said in a press release Tuesday afternoon.

“Representatives from local gasoline distributors indicate that we should start seeing relief to the gas shortage by Wednesday,” the release said. “We encourage everyone to conserve whenever possible. Waiting to top off your tank will help make gas available to those without any.”
