All right got to get the gas prices sorry folks -- still climbing.

The average for a gallon of regular is now 362.

It's up another penny keeps on going open up and up it's a spike.

Up over thirty cents a gallon in the last month.

But with more on this let's bring in that Patrick.

There is the highest priced gas in the confidential 48 in America.

I have a feeling you should know this by now it's in California just pick a city.

LA has really getting hit hard right now for 21.

In fact prices are so Ohio need probably call me out on gas prices going up but I -- nice suit so I kind of dress down today so that I don't look like I'm the one that's taking advantage and out I look it's no laughing matter I mean it is no joke -- four dollar gas Siri comes -- twenty in Los Angeles all right.

Give -- the other side of the coin -- the cheapest.

Well Billings Montana has an off the -- today 303.

Gallons of quite this credit you're going from LA that Chile Billings.

You could probably save quite a bit of money a more important point is this.

We seem to be keeping -- -- establishing a new normal we go all we come down.

But the down is always at a higher level than the down in the past we keep on inching up with a new normal.

Seems to me like the new normal is 350.

And we now bouncing off 350 what -- side.

Well I don't know if we're ever going to have a norm for gas prices they're just all over the place -- -- sporadic -- bipolar but what you do say is is worrisome that is worse -- publishing a new floor.

Prices to there are already twelve cents higher than last year so we're going to hit new -- record prices this year that's certainly concerned.

I think this is just the rally starting a bit early usually waits until April before we see gas prices really solar.

I think we're just seeing -- -- everybody wants to give them on the rally the Dow Jones is going up and commodity somebody started to rally in commodities buying and nobody wants a mile behind it that this is just -- rally starting -- OK you say -- it is also so law usually in April are you telling me that -- dollars a gallon now we're at 362 you say a national average for dollars is on its way this year this spring really.

I haven't predicted four dollars a gallon yet it certainly could be a close call last year we hit 389 nationally it's certainly possible that look at prices today already twelve cents ahead of last year.

The big question is is this the rally that -- already will.

Or -- -- -- will be taking place and April is taking place now.

If there's another rally will hit four dollars a gallon it's certainly a possibility.

I'll leave you this fourth 23.

In -- and police California incredible.

All right Patrick down always a pleasure thanks very much up thanks -- 949.
