Tim’s Observations:
As we closed out the month of May, prices across Wyoming continued to rise.
Counties once holding fast against the tide of price increases are now succumbing to the flood. Albany County, where the price of gallon was often below $4, is now seeing prices regularly over $4.
There are no cities in our regular survey that are reporting prices below $4 per gallon. Wyoming’s average price continues to set record after record.
It’s only going to get worse before the expected late summer peak. How much worse is the question.
At least the price of filling our tires with air hasn’t gone up, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it does.
