Ya might wanna fill your tank tonight

According to WTOPnews.com, oil futures rose $4 per barrel in anticipation of Hurricane Rita, and (if I'm interpretting this correctly) wholesale gas prices (before distribution, taxes, and other markup) rose 26 cents/gallon. I presume that will be reflected by an even bigger jump at the pumps within the next 24 hours.

Of course, only time will tell, but I think I'll top off the tank tonight.
