Here is a map of offshore oil rigs. I think the price will spike as early as Monday, but more because of the situation with Iran than because of the "D" storm...

The price of oil has fallen dramatically over the past week since President Bush rescinded the executive ban on drilling. You will see gas prices DROP next week as a result.

I agree. They are dropping now and will drop at the beginning of the week, so I suggest filling it up around Monday. But for several reason, including the future Gulf storm, I think they will go up next week. I've already seen them drop 5-10 cents in my town in the past couple of days. Time will tell. In the meantime, I think this storm is a little farther north than where the models initialize it, so a strike on Texas is not out of the question. Also, it is getting better organized.
