They are blaming this summers hot temps for the price increases.

“While the heat may be keeping people home, it’s also keeps refineries from making refined product,” Gross explained, noting that refineries are typically designed to operate between 32 and 95 degrees Fahrenheit (0 and 35 degrees Celsius). “They don’t like temperature extremes because they’re inherently dangerous places... So they dial back the production for safety purposes, but that then constrains supply.”

A couple of the more expensive gas stations around here are $6/gal for 91. But Costco is just a tick over $5/gal for 87. Costco is usually about 10% cheaper than most local gas stations.

Average for 87 in the county is about $6.30. This whole scenario is insane.

gas gone through the roof

Needed my truck today, so I filled up the Duramax. I had a little under a 1/4 tank left, but the fill up waswas 170 bucks. 25 gal at 6.85. I see 93 octane gas for over 7 bucks. WTF? How much per gal at your place? I watched it go up in the past couple months.

You must have really bought at the wrong place, gas and diesel actually went down in recent days but it's still high. Diesel is $5.99 at my corner station, filled up this morning. Granted, it is a Mobil with possibly the best prices in town. $6.20 at a lot of places.

It could shoot up if the ME catch on fire...that is to say that the current conflict expands past Gaza and the settlements.

I haven't seen it below 6 bucks for months. Where is this station? At those prices, a fill up can mean 15 bucks difference. I was up in Los Feliz near the Greek Theater all day.
