The Shell station by my office was 7 cents more than the Costco by my house. I paid the 70 cents "convenience charge" for being able to go on my lunch instead of down to Costco on my way home.

By the time it gets to Illinois it will be a basic storm.

No anticipatory gas hike today anyway. The price when I came home was 4 cents lower than when I went to work (biggest single day drop in a couple months).

Yet another reason for being a bitter east coaster. We get all the sloppy seconds.

Discounting the Houston area where you would expect a spike, nationally the price of gas is up $0.04 from yesterday.

I am under the impression that gas prices in Utah rarely lower themselves. They don't jump up as fast, but boy... they come down even sllloooowwweeerrrr... Meaning I'll still be paying $3.80, even if prices go up or down everywhere else.

I still filled up yesterday. I was more-or-less due for a fill-up. Glad to have a train to ride for the past couple of days (schedule normalized for an impressive TWO DAYS), but I'll be back to driving next week since I'll be working supa-dupa long-assed days (and the extra 2 hours of public trans just won't cut it). Then train again until... who knows?

"Texans told to flee or face certain death"

Anyway, the article says...
Quote:
The oil and gas industry was closely watching the storm because it was headed straight for the nation's biggest complex of refineries and petrochemical plants. The upper Texas coast accounts for one-fifth of U.S. refining capacity.

Weather forecasters at Planalytics saw "major and long-term damage likely at the major refining cities."
