Submitted by AgentOrange on Mon, 02/18/2013 - 11:07Gas prices have gone up almost 8¢ since the 14th ... a heart breaking price hike that makes this the most expensive February on record for gasoline in California history. The current average is now $4.27.
Gas prices surge another 9¢ in four days.
Submitted by AgentOrange on Thu, 02/07/2013 - 18:00Local gas prices surged 9¢ at the retail level today, reaching an average price of $4.09 a gallon in San Diego County.
Prices have increased 27¢ in the last 7 days, and almost 40¢ in the last two weeks, representing an 11% increase in less than 14 days.
Given the velocity of the current price trajectory, and the fact that it is occurring this early in the year, suggests that 2013 will probably be the most expensive year for gasoline in the history of the state of California.

Hurricane won't make gasoline price waves in San Diego
Submitted by AgentOrange on Thu, 11/01/2012 - 15:33Why Hurricane Sandy will help lower our gas prices
We've said it before: "Driving rain drives down gas prices."
And when a hurricane is in play, you can expect gas prices
to drop in the short term. In fact, we predict that in Southern
California, gas prices are likely to drop another 8¢ this weekend.
The primary reason is demand destruction: On the East
Coast, demand is down because so many roads are
impassable.
