“Even though the national average dropped 5 cents this past week to $4.36, pump prices remain at record highs for autumn. This is the first year the national average has been above $4 per gallon in October. After dipping into the $80 per barrel range for several days, crude oil is back above $90 per barrel. Hurricane Isaias [Hurricane Trump or MAGA – AutoCrat?] is another factor that could affect gas prices if oil production and refineries in the region are impacted.” AAA said in a release analyzing pricing trends.
