Becky says: Really. 82 bucks? - FOX 21/27 WFXR Roanoke/WWCW Lynchburg News, Weather

It cost 82 bucks to fill up my tank today. And we have weeks left until Memorial Day weekend, or that whole "start of the summer travel season." Great.

I know. It seems every year, we hear the horror stories about how high gas prices will go up each summer. This year, we are hearing $5 a gallon by summer - exactly when, I don't know. I have my doubts the price will truly skyrocket that high.

However, now that it just cost $82 to fill up my tank and we've only just begun (insert music) the month of April, I have to admit, it worries me a bit.

I like to drive back to see family in Cincinnati every now and then, but if gas truly reaches 5 bucks a gallon, I may have to hold off, on road trips until the fall.

82 bucks is bad enough ... Please don't get any worse.
