We're all feeling the pain at the pump right now, just filling up our cars.
But the record-breaking diesel prices are hitting Wisconsin farmers with a double dose of high costs.
Not only is it costing farmers more to produce the food for our tables, now, as the General Sentinel reports, transport companies are adding new surcharges to move harvests.
Some farmers say their usual transport rates have nearly doubled just as the diesel price has.
Unlike other industries, farmers don't have the option of adjusting their selling price around cost increases.
Local farmers explain their only way to make ends meet is by making cuts, impacting their farms' future.
As of September 18, Wisconsin has broken its all-time diesel price record every day for seven days in a row.
Yesterday's record diesel price of $6.57 for our state's average continues that trend.
The White House is giving a nod to Wisconsin growers.
Silent Night Evergreens in Central Wisconsin will be providing the official Christmas tree for the White House this year.
The Endeavour Tree Farm welcomed the White House Superintendent of Grounds Dale Haney yesterday morning, who came to select the tree.
Haney says the perfect tree needs to be the right height and full all the way around.
Silent Night Evergreens is the 2026 winner of the National Christmas Tree Association's nationwide contest.
The tree selected is a 30-foot-tall, con-color fur.
It'll be trimmed down and displayed in the blue room for more than 100,000 White House visitors to enjoy this Christmas season.
Don't be alarmed if you hear fighter jets in the sky overnight this week.
The 115th Fighter Wing of the Wisconsin Air National Guard is holding training sessions.

Flight paths have been designed to minimize noise and disruptions, though local residents may still hear F-35 fighter jets overhead during training hours.
Gas analysts say prices in the Great Lakes area are surging faster than anywhere else in the nation right now.
Civic media's Melissa Kay tells us why.
Average gas prices rose 34.2 cents over the last week.
The state average at 4.43 on Monday.
This is 49.7 cents per gallon higher than a month ago and $1.55 higher than this time last year.
Officials at GasBuddy say gasoline prices rose in virtually every state over the past week.
the Great Lakes region experiencing refinery issues, which drove prices up even further.
The national average price of diesel jumped 30.7 cents for an average of $6.49 across the country.
Patrick Dahan is head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy.
He said continued strikes on Russian oil refineries tightened global diesel supply, driving diesel prices up in every state.
The refinery issues in the Great Lakes region amplified pressure on diesel prices locally.
Gas buddy officials say any broad directional change in prices will depend heavily on overseas developments.
New attacks and escalations make the outlook deeply uncertain.
For Civic Media News, I'm Melissa Kaye.
But there is relief in sight.
Dahan says with the refinery now coming back online, wholesale gas prices should drop significantly.
That means our price at the pump should also come down in a few days.
