Huge differences in gas prices around the area

As usual, Louisville has one of the highest gas prices in the region. If we are not used to that by now, we never will be. The summertime blend for pollution controls adds some to our cost.

However, at least we are not the highest for the cost of gas.

A temporary shutdown in the refinery that supplies gasoline for most of Indiana has caused shortages and big increases across the Hoosier state. In Indianapolis, prices are down as much as a quarter today compared with yesterday with a current range of 3.99 to 4.25 a gallon.

Long lines for gas in Indianapolis
Locally, prices in Jefferson County range from 3.83 to 3.99.
Across the river, gas is as low as 3.48 in Clarksville and New Albany.

Going up I-71 by the time you get to Carrollton, gas is at 3.38

East on I-64, 3.48 at Simpsonville

South on I-65,  3.54 just south of Shepherdsville.

The lowest in Kentucky is 3.17 at London.

What's this got to do with the weather?  Nothing except it can make you HOT under the collar if you gas up in Louisville (or Indianapolis).
