Oil prices up, gas prices dropping
Yesterday, oil reached a new all-time record high of $145.29 a barrel, yet San Diego gas prices are dropping.
Today, the average price of gas in San Diego County has dropped 4¢ since last Friday to a new average of $4.55 a gallon.
The new average is the highest price average ever in San Diego history for the Fourth of July. Last year on this day, San Diego gasoline averaged $3.08 a gallon.
Diesel prices have surged, and will continue to climb, reflecting massive increases on the spot market. Today, diesel once again climbed above the $5 mark to a new average price of $5.03 a gallon. This new average is up 5¢ from Tuesday, an we expect to see aggressive price hikes of 5 to 20¢ a gallon in the next week at most diesel retailers. Last year on July 4, San Diego diesel averaged $3.13 a gallon.
