Immediately up 15 to 20 cents per gallon in my area. The price jumped on Friday before any actual damage even occurred.
That is exactly what I was expecting, but not happening...yet. Maybe this afternoon. :-)
I’m in northwestern North Carolina and went to fill up yesterday under the impression that retail price was going up, but no change. Still $2.14 a gallon. The eastern part of NC is apparently another matter, though. Different pipeline? Don’t know. We’re served by Colonial Pipeline here, large “tank farm” just south of the airport.
They would have bumped it up about 10 cents anyway just because Labor Day weekend.
What a bunch of greedy bastards. Here in Alberta it hasn’t really jumped. We have major supplies of this stuff too, but a lot of it is still refined elsewhere, so you’d think they’d crank it up as well.
