Still $3.299 at the casino station around the corner here by Oroville. It's been that for the majority of September.
Anyone know why diesel prices have just suddenly gone up while gasoline prices have gone down, at least in northeast Wisconsin?
Change over to winter blend maybe
Does timing of winter blend differ between gasoline and diesel?Change over to winter blend maybe
Does timing of winter blend differ between gasoline and diesel?
Also, isn't winter blend diesel less expensive (typically) if D1 is mixed with D2? If additives are used to lower the cloud/gel temps for diesel, I can see a minor cost impact, but not a 5-7% increase.
My understanding is that winter blend is now accomplished in most areas by additives.Does timing of winter blend differ between gasoline and diesel?

Historically, diesel always rises relative to gasoline at this time of year -- usually beginning in August. The events in Saudi Arabia pushed up gasoline prices at a time when they typically start to decline. The spread has returned to normal or close to it.In northeast Wisconsin, diesel prices were pretty steady following the refinery attacks, while gasoline inched up gradually about 30 cents/gallon, until just recently.
Just recently, gasoline prices have dropped to the pre-refinery attack prices, while diesel prices recently shot up about 20 cents/gallon here. Now, diesel on average is about 50 cents/gallon higher than gasoline.
