In the aftermath of the attacks on Saudi oil, the U.S. average retail gasoline price jumped by more than 10 cents per gallon between September 16 and September 23—the largest weekly increase in gas prices since early September 2017, when in the wake of Hurricane Harvey gas prices jumped by 28 cents/gallon in one week, the EIA said on Wednesday.

For us here in northwestern Indiana, there was a 40 cent jump ($2.49 to $2.89) in the 2 weeks beginning with Hurricane Dorian and the Iranian attack on the Saudi oil fields. The price here for the last 10 days has been steady at $2.79, a 10 cent drop from the “jump high.”
And today, it is down another dime to $2.69.
Time to bring it down to $2.49 - the more acceptable level for gas
OMG $2.69 I would kill for that in CA. right now it is $3.89!!!!!
45 miles south of us, in Lafayette, IN, it is $2.45 at Sam’s Club. Where we use to live in Camp Springs, MD, it is also $2.45 per Gasbuddy.com, but 10 miles north it is a 10 to 20 cents more. Camp Springs is where Andrews AFB is located.
$2.28 to $2.39 in NW Arkansas.
Here 8n SW FL, jumped $.10. Now back where it was.
dropped 40 cents over the last two weeks in this area.
$2.27 @ “Pilot” as I was passing by Paducah, KY, this evening. IL of course was much higher.
That prompted me to look @ Gas Buddy’s map just now — when did they change their map colors? I liked the old colors better, but, the new ones REALLY make CA stick out like a sore thumb!
Just in time for Bikes, Blues and BBQ.
Let’s see, last week gas was $2.59 here, this week $2.45. Yup largest jump ever, not.
just outside of Dallas, TX. 87 was running about $2.19, maybe $2.09 if you got lucky. Jumped up to $2.60ish, but it’s slowly come back down a bit to $2.39 or so.
I thought President Trump was going to prevent that spike by releasing oil/gas? from the strategic reserve.
About $3.75 in San Diego. CA maintains is position as state with the highest gas prices.
In S. MS, it went from $2.09 to $2.25
A few places have dropped a couple cents but it never got unmanageable.
