The price of gas is soaring again...

[Archae]

A few weeks ago the price of gas at my local gas station (across the street,) was $2.40.

Today, it jumped to $3.09.

1. Cold weather shut down refineries in Texas or gas shipments?

But then, people aren't driving as much because of snow and icy roads.


Haele,

[Rebl2]

10. I believe

that shut downs would cause that.

[Deuxcents]

2. I filled up today at 2.79. Good thing I don't drive much anymore

Other gas stations posted 3.09 but I have a BJ’s membership..it’s like a Sam’s or Costco

[Historic NY]

3. Republicans are going to fix that .

[Beachnutt]

5. They'll fix it alright, they sabotage everything

and twist it to look like its the Dems fault.

[Emile]

9. You betcha. Just like Trump's border wall is working!

4. Saw $2.99 at a couple nearby stations, $3.09 @ 'mine,' yesterday,

today the 'nearby' stations up from 2.99 to $3.09, same as 'mine.'

6. Stopped selling from the petroleum reserve and switched to buying ?

[Meadowoak]

7. Buy Electric. That is all.

[Archae]

8. I already have.

An e-bicycle.

And in winter, I use the bus.

12. I just watched a yt vid testing charging stations in sub zero weather

Colorado north and most if not all of the newer units refused to work, those that did decreased the charge rate. One driver had to get a motel because of fear of running out of juice. Sounds like it's still a work in progress.

18. I have a charging station in my garage, that works just fine

In any weather, solar powered too.

11. "Refinery Issues"

It's a great catch-all excuse.

[Tree-Hugger]

13. It went up here

It was in the $3.20's - with our local BJs at $2.99 - and hopped to over $3.50 overnight.

14. Needs to be a lot higher to get people to switch from ICE to EV vehicles

We can't expect people to stop using fossil fuels if gas prices are low.

[ProfessorGAC]

15. Went Up 15 Cents Here

Nothing like what you saw.

[Hekate]

16. I invite you to come on over and "enjoy" California's gas prices

[Archae]

17. I have a sister who lives in California.

Stayed at her place for a week last September, and when we did go out, I noticed the high price of gas there.

It really is high.

[Mr.Bill]

19. 3.99 in Northern California yesterday.

Same station had it at 3.74 a few weeks ago.

[Hekate]

21. Yes it is. The bitter complaints from the rest of the country kind of grate after awhile.

[dweller]

20. $3.09 is the lowest it has gotten to in my area

and it has taken forever to get there
