What month is it? It's only February, and summer gas prices have already hit Orange County.
The average price of self-serve regular in Orange County has reached $4.70 a gallon, beating the previous record set in 2012.That has given way to a shocking sight — $4.99 a gallon for regular gas at a Chevron station in Costa Mesa. It’s the most expensive price for regular gas in Orange County, but John Doidge says he was only there because he only needed a couple of gallons, and it was the closest station to home.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, gas prices increased almost 50% from December 2020 to December 2021. “We see record oil prices that are contributing to this high price, and also, the local refineries started shipping their summer-blend of gasoline this week, and that always traditionally pushes up prices,” Marie Montgomery of the Auto Club said.
