Here in Phoenix, AZ. , diesel just dropped 3 cents from $2. 76/9 to $2. 73/9 in the last two days(@ the Flying J). Regular gas stations have it at $2. 85/9 to over $3. 00 per gal.
Just heard that fuel production was at 87% of its capacity with quite a bit in storage. Production of gas was down due to normal maintainance & some, other than normal, shut downs.
Here in AZ, we were just informed that, at least, some of the refineries in CA were going to quit selling fuel to AZ. Our governor said that it should not be a problem as we can still get fuel elsewhere, probably TX. As a 'return favor', maybe we can stop selling electricity to our CA neighbors. None of this can be a good thing for both states.
