Gasoline Prices At 5-Month High
The average retail price of gasoline soared by almost 14 cents last week, rising above $2.50 a gallon for the first time since late October, the Energy Information Administration said.
The agency said Monday that U.S. motorists paid $2.504 cents a gallon on average for regular grade last week, a rise of 13.8 cents from the previous week. The jump in retail prices follows a 42-cent-per gallon rise in unleaded gasoline futures since mid-February. On Monday, gasoline for April delivery settled at $1.8301 per gallon.
Gasoline prices were most expensive last week on the West Coast, averaging $2.571 per gallon, and cheapest in the Rocky Mountain region, averaging $2.395 per gallon.
