The average price has risen for 26 consecutive days, increasing 86.2 cents, including 11.9 cents Tuesday and 11 cents Sunday, according to figures from the AAA and Oil Price Information Service. It is 56.3 cents more than one week ago, 82.7 cents higher than one month ago, and $1.699 greater than one year ago.
"A string of planned and unplanned refinery maintenance issues has severely tightened fuel supply in California," said Doug Shupe, the Automobile Club of Southern California's corporate communications manager. "West Coast fuel inventories are at the lowest level in about a decade according to Energy Information Administration.
There may be "some relief" in November when stations are again allowed to sell winter-blend gas which is cheaper to produce, Shupe told City News Service.
HLWD_HILLS_WEST
'Unplanned and planned refinery maintenance issues' = Corp exec bullsh¡t for 'Gimme Gimme Gimme'
People posting the prices in So Cal. - current STOP VOTING DEMOCRAT!!
30 days and counting. Its call inflation. President Biden should have not giving student loan forgiveness that is also contributed ti inflation. Giving mon3y during covid 19 contributed to inflation. Lets not forget all the momey he gave to Ukraine.
Where are all the Biden supporters now?
I’d like to put together a union that will fight the boss/state for lower gas prices for us! Unions seem to be the thing to do right now…We sure don’t have anybody else helping!
Thanks Biden.
This is ridiculous
I bought 10 gallons of gas two weeks ago. Does anyone want to trade for some milk and eggs and maybe a little bread
Gas in ATL getting cheaper 🤔
Greed.. that’s why they going higher.. funny how refineries always have shutdowns in bad times, every year this happens with those stupid excuses. When the economy tanks and will back to recession and companies shut down don’t blame Biden blame congress
The question is why do Californians and Alaskans pay more? I saw more than $7!!! Cheap gas in midwest states doesn’t make sense. This is inequity for Americans in West!
Ahhhh, thanks liberal ****s. Cant wait to vote with everyone in Nov to get your asses OUT.
Who cares about the price!! Talk about real news
gasprices in LosAngeles have increased by $2 per gallon within the past 12 days.
cc: WhiteHouse JoeBiden POTUS PressSec GavinNewsom
I don't understand why nobody is outraged over this. Is it because we are so willingly paying anything? How about we all stop buying gas for just one day...
AlexPadilla4CA yet is focused on blaming others for CA_Dem failures
I don’t want to hear the bullshit excuses when gas companies are taking in record profits. Where is the help? GavinNewsom
Why they might go higher?
Keep voting democrat
😡‼️
Thanks Brandon!
They can’t even decide what excuse to use anymore.
Thank Greasy Gavin 👍🏻
‘uncoordinated’ unplanned maintenance, supposed shortages-anyone see a closed station? former neighbor worked for an oil co would say CA is a cash cow, will pay anything & they cover the burden of lower prices in other states, paid $2.91 yesterday shouldn’t be that much disparity
Simply because the gas refineries manipulate the prices blame it on future high prices when they bought low and blame these silly blends in southern California we have on season yet they make up that we have to have these seasonal blends, then there's timely 'accidents' and fire
A barrel is only at above 80, but the gas prices at the pump are higher than when a barrel was at 120.
Thank Fire Marshall Biden.
Our economy is melting down
Did you invest in oil oh wait you didn’t back in the day ooops you missed the boat lol
Lol I said it will be ten just to scare you to by electric but fyi they are going to make it impossible to charge one day good luck. People enjoy the times as you can
Gas is $2.87 in Houston
and we are guessing it's racist and all because of white people?
Thank you incompetent old man Biden and slimeball Newsom for all your damn gas taxes in California
Newsom is sending me $350 to help with the relief That's $12 a day and gas is closer to $7 where I live. He promised this joke of a relief on March 8th. Struggling for this shit while he sits on his 100 billion surplus.
Why is it so expensive? It’s 4$ in my state and dropping why does it keep going up in California
Yeah it jumped almost a dollar in under a week here in AZ
In one week it went up 70 cents a gallon, far cry from AAA stated was 20 cents..
Keep exporting American oil to China and blocking the American oil producers exploration and infrastructure initiatives incompetent Biden administration.
Because Biden is the worst President we have ever had!
Oil companies know what they’re doing
Keep voting progressive!!
Maintenence issues.
What happened to the gas prices dropping like Biden was touting? 🙄
What’s the excuse now? Gas companies are always blaming it on something going on in the other side of the world when in reality, whatever they blame it on has little effect on us. They’re always looking for ways to fill their pockets.
I paid more than 6.11 yesterday morning. More like 6.39, and that was after .11 cents off for a car wash.
Thanks Dems!! Time to vote them out in Nov!!! Failed policy after policy
This is by design . If we would all just obey corporate America and stop demanding higher wages and humane treatment like good little slaves , they would call off their friend Mr. Federal reserve.
OLD! Get FACTS.
I'm scared to go to the gas station. The gas station near my house is close to hitting $7 a gallon. I'm a Lyft driver and these gas prices are not helping my wallet. 😞
Gas prices have not been this high since March.
Where’s Joe Biden? He wanted a round of applause when he dropped gas .10 cents.
oil execs prepping for fourth quarter profit bonuses
The greed that the gas companies are showing is unprecedented and unforgivable.
Gotta love our gas companies milking the crap out of this rn
JoeBiden
Gas prices have always been high the reporting that they were low were LiES!!!!
They pushing us to get electric cars. Fuck that.
Repeat after me: corporate greed.
Jumped a $1.30 in two days in OC. some stations are over $7
50% or more of it directly go to the government/taxes

The cheap gas station next to where I live went from 4.99 to 5.29 in ONE day... for cheap gas. It's at 6.15 now.. in under a week
Looks like another BidenWins!!!!
State government doing absolutely nothing. That’s a democratic state for you
And guess whom we have to thank for this? JoeBiden
so is this what the oil companies going to do every 3 months run it up gas make sh!t lord of money drop price rinse repeat ? smh
Is that because Biden is turning of the taps to the strategic oil reverse like Jimmy Carter did
Oil execs are conservative republicans

Hey people the government is getting their money back first then they will start distributing your gas incentive.
They have been seen this year.
Your reporting is like a yo-yo. I swear I’m living Groundhog Day…smh
But people is more focused to talk about the mermaid movie
Crooked Politicians/Government 💰💰💰💰
CA and the Gas Tax…
GavinNewsom Can you take some time off of the campaign trail to help us? This is scary!
It's just plain corporate greed. No other reason for it. And it stinks.
Not Biden‘s fault. Only decreasing gas prices are attributable to him.
