“Gas prices could indeed fall, but are highly unlikely to go back to their pre-war levels for months, in part due to the amount of time needed for global inventories to build back, and in part due to seasonality — rising demand, refinery turnarounds and summer gasoline,” Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, which provides real-time gas price information from more than 150,000 stations, wrote on social media Tuesday.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LOS ANGELES (CNS) – The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in Los Angeles County…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":246940,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[7048,3557,163,165,164,7053,26,7065,7057,4300,7061,7060,7054,7052,7056,7055,7066,6217,48,7068,47,7063,7062,973,7069,100,7064,2083,611,1839,4201,6220,7070,7049,7050,7051,7059,7058,7067],"class_list":{"0":"post-246939","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-anaheim","8":"tag-7048","9":"tag-am","10":"tag-anaheim","11":"tag-anaheim-headlines","12":"tag-anaheim-news","13":"tag-bill-handel","14":"tag-breaking-news","15":"tag-broadcasting","16":"tag-conway","17":"tag-eaton-fire","18":"tag-gary-shannon","19":"tag-gary-and-shannon","20":"tag-gary-hoffmann","21":"tag-handel","22":"tag-john-ken","23":"tag-john-and-ken","24":"tag-john-kobylt","25":"tag-kfi","26":"tag-la","27":"tag-la-fires","28":"tag-los-angeles","29":"tag-los-angeles-radio","30":"tag-los-angeles-talk-radio","31":"tag-media","32":"tag-mo-kelly","33":"tag-news","34":"tag-newstalk","35":"tag-oc","36":"tag-orange-county","37":"tag-palisades-fire","38":"tag-radio","39":"tag-radio-station","40":"tag-santa-ana-winds","41":"tag-stay-connected","42":"tag-stimulating","43":"tag-talk","44":"tag-talk-radio","45":"tag-tim-conway","46":"tag-wild-fire"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246939","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=246939"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/246939\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/246940"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=246939"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=246939"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=246939"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
