Gas Price Info With National Gas Temperature Map

  • Server Issues.

    We are very aware that there have been system issues the past few days. In troubleshooting the system, it has been determined that the issue is at our provider and is hardware related. As of 12:05 PM ET our provider has moved us to a new server.

    Things seem to be running better on this new server. However in trying to diagnose the issue (before finding out it was a hardware issue) we made some system changes which we need to undo. So if you find any issues or errors please let us know in the Operations Center Forum.

    Thank you for your patience! Sorry for the issue!

IT was $ 2.91 at RAce trak and the news today said oil is over $76.00 a barel. Looks like I was right that the price would go up again, but wrong that it would happen on the 4th of July. I was only a week early in my prediction.
 
Our summer vacation had gas prices all over the place. We tanked up for $2.69? before leaving St. Louis, MO (the cheapest) and paid $3.25? (the most expensive) in Sault Ste. Marie, MI. But the truly most expensive gas was on Beaver Island, MI, at over $4.25?/gal.
 
I beleive there is a Valero Energy Corporation (Valero Fuel) refinery here in Memphis. (aka Shamrock, Diamond Shamrock, Ultramar, Beacon, and Total)
 
In a matter of 3-4 days it went from $2.79 jumping up several times to $3.09 then back down to $2.99 and down to $2.95 it is all over the place.

Can we STICKY this map link please? Also FYI refineries will be slowing production of summer blends in preparation to switch formulas. This time frame can cause temporary price spikes because of slow production. Overall gasoline supplies fell last week for the fifth-straight week despite a jump in production of imports. Stockpiles of the motor fuel fell by 1.5 million barrels, or 0.8 percent, to 191.1 million barrels for the week ending Aug. 31. Gasoline inventories were 8.8 percent below year-ago levels.

charper1- It always does labor day weekend. nothing news in your post, just a reminder of what happens each year.
However, our local prices are still at 2.50 +- .05.

The one thing I could never figure out is why one area and not others get the increases / decreases sooner than others. I believe last year at this time we were running the high in the nation. Now we remain lower than others. We/ve been pretty stable since end of June.

Because not all areas use the same formulation and one specific area's supply stockpiles may or may not dip and rise as fast as another areas. Sorry my post may have contained some repeats of news that occurs seasonally, but thats because users are asking the same questions like they had never heard some of the info before.
