Gas prices in Charlottesville, Virginia have been on a roller coaster ride. Like many other parts of the country, people paniced when they heard Hurricane Ike was about to hit the Golf. On Friday we saw gridlock atCharlottesville area gas stations. The rumor circulated that gas would be $5.00 a gallon by Saturday. Some station's parking lots were jammed with so many cars going in different directions that it was impossible to move. The one station that I was keeping my eye on started the day with regular gas priced at $3.49 per gallon, by late morning this had gone up to $3.69 and the panic was on. At 8:30 they had regular at $3.79 and the price at 2:00 a.m. was $4.69. By Saturday morning prices had settled back to $3.97 a gallon for regular. Hopefully the crisis has been averted, at least for now, and with the price of a barrel of oil down, I hope prices will settle back to the level of several days ago.
