Gas Prices Surge Back to Record Highs | Amarillo News

Gas prices are staging a wild comeback, hitting $4.06 nationally — a shocking spike for late August. What we thought was a summer dip? More like a mirage. The culprit? Global conflicts disrupting diesel supply chains, especially after attacks on Russian refineries. Even with fewer diesel cars on the road, over 7 million still rely on it — more than all electric vehicles combined. States like California, Hawaii, and Washington are already paying over $5 a gallon for gas, while diesel nears $7. Winter-blend fuel might offer a tiny reprieve next month, but the real drivers of these prices — war and refinery chaos — show no sign of easing. Expect prices to keep climbing.
