Isaac is going to cause major spike in Gasoline and Diesel prices over the next two to three weeks. Better fill up all the tanks you can today. Expect over $4 Gasoline by the weekend.

Two other plants (Marathon and Phillips 66) in LA are shutting down. Some others in LA, MS and AL are scaling back operations. We are making more gasoline and diesel as of today.

What else would you expect from them! No offense to you JD or any others in the industry here, but the truth is that it is just flat out gouging the American People.

I'm with you Clem...that's why we all need to trade in our trucks for the new Nat Gas powered ones that are rolling out in 2013. You would be paying the equivalent of less than $1 per gallon if you were driving one. Both Chevy and Dodge have a 3/4 ton bi-fuel truck ready for purchase amigo! Converting our transportation fuel from gas to CNG is the first step in U.S. independence from foreign oil.

A slow moving storm with a lot precipitation will test that area again. Hope Army Corp of Engineers did a better job with those levees.

New Orleans had events with alot of rain with or without tropical systems and they've held up.

Unless they followed the same path and intensity, don't know if we've seen similar instances. This one has a similar path and if the storm surges are similar as well, it can be dangerous. I think they fixed these issues however. Can never be too sure, alway best to employ the precautionary principle.

I think they fixed these issues however. Can never be too sure, alway best to employ the precautionary principle. I think it depends on what angle a storm takes to put those levees to the test. If it hits east of the city between NO and Miss, then the backside is what puts them in danger. You will recall during Katrina, they thought they dodged the bullet because it hit and everything was fine until the backside of the storm hit the lake and river. The risk is probably lower taking the eye in the city or for it to strike to the west around Baton Rouge.
