looking on gaspricewatch.com I see that there is still gas for $3.39 in Manassas (price updated 15 hours ago). I was planning on driving down to visit my folks today. I may top off the Buick's tank if I find a station that cheap along the way. I can't top off the truck because I added a bottle of BG 44K to the fuel on Thursday. I need to run that tank as low as I comfortably can to get the most out of the 44K. I don't want to top off and dillute it.

Those high price due to hurricanes are temporary, and by 1-2 weeks it will go back to normal. So if a person conssume a reasonable amout of gallon per week, he should be fine if his tank is full (10+ gallons, depend on the car...). So those temporary high should affect that much people when its not on a long period.
The fact is that raffineries are built in the hurricanes territory, so we have do deal with it, oil is getting thougher to get and each and every day, we have about 84 million barrels less. Drilling in the Artic wont be much easy and less expansive... unless Alaska, but what is alaska, 2-3 years... |
At least there's no tropical storms in Alaska.
You might be snowed out for a while, but once the snow melts there shouldn't be much damage. |

the question is, what or how much is illegal? people, mostly tourists, ARE continuing to pay it. |
There's one spot in my hometown that gas is ~50 cents more than anywhere else. Its right off of I-95. As soon as you get off the highway all you see are 4 fuel stations witin 100 yards of the highway, and then trees & nothing else. If you actually drove 1/2 mile down the road gas is much cheaper. Locals don't buy gas there. Those stations survive on traffic coming off of the highway.
