I live in Kentucky. Gas rose between $1 and $1.20 during a four hour period last night. Some stations had gas for $4.59 last night at 10 PM. This morning they were at 3.89. Fishy, at best.

Gas is now $4 here.

I really don't know, so I will just ask. I had the impression most of KY’s gas comes from LA, KY, and TN. All of which have refineries. Why is it so high there being TX is the one that has so many shutdowns? The other question I have is, being that the price per gallon of gas has not yet dropped to meet the lowering prices of oil, is there any need to increase at all?

I have a sister who worked at a convenience store chain. They had no say, the would get the call and be told that their supplier put the price up, and they should go out and change the sign to read a higher price per gallon. When oil was on an upswing this happened two or three times a day. But now that it is going down, it happens only once a week or so.
