Wholesale oil and gasoline prices have been falling after each NHC update moves Ernesto further east, away from vital Gulf oil rigs and refineries. Currently, wholesale oil is down over $1 per barrel and gasoline down roughly 5 cents per gallon.

wondering what immediate effect this will have on our gas prices.
BP’s announcement is fairly important, but not the biggest deal in
