Question Need some help.. P0441 on a road trip

Okay well I am on a 2400 mile road trip and I am 630 miles in as of right now. I threw code P0441 (Evaporative Emission Control System Incorrect Purge Flow). I am not really sure on this. I searched and saw a lot of suggestion but nothing said how anyone solved the problem.

I had Auto Zone reset the code and it has been 100 miles since and has not come back on. I am not 100% certain but I think it came on after I filled up at Sheetz and went through the car wash, which had a underbody spray from hell. I am hoping maybe that threw the code some how. Hopefully it does not come back on, but if it does how bad is it to drive on? If anyone has any experience with this code please help me out. Thanks

Yeah, if you're not noticing anything, and it hasn't popped back on after the reset I wouldn't worry about it too much man.
