Did I miss an oil rig explosion?

Meanwhile in Alabama.

I just purchased gas at Kroger without using any fuel points for like $1.94 yesterday. Hey, hopefully it will stay at a lower reasonable cost, despite crude oil fluctuations.
 
The difference is just a little reading:

Saudi Arabia is dialing back its oil exports in accord with OPEC’s recent decision to curb production. Oil has started to rally. Increases in the price of crude usually start showing up at the gas station several days later.

During the summer, the benchmark gas futures contract consistently traded at a bit less than $3 per million British thermal units. An autumn cold snap sent its price soaring to nearly $5 per MMBtu in a matter of weeks. But as we noted at the time, a return to milder weather would push gas prices back down, and that’s exactly what has happened: Gas futures are now trading at $2.94. If frigid temperatures return, another price spike is likely, because the amount of gas held in storage remains below average. But otherwise, we look for gas prices to stay near $3 per MMBtu.
