The price of gasoline — and other auto fuels — is on the rise again. The US Energy Information Administration (EIA) says the price of regular-grade gas hit a record high last week. On average prices for a gallon of gas in the U.S. stands at $4.33.
Diesel is looking at a record high and even steeper prices. It now averages $5.62 a gallon.
Prices dropped all through March and April but — as always — with the approach of Memorial Day and lots of weekend travel, prices are up.
AAA says the Western states — and in particular, California — are seeing the highest prices. The lowest costs per gallon are in the Midwest.
Georgia has the lowest average I the U.S. at $3.95 a gallon.
As noted earlier, PIA Western Alliance members — most of whom live in the West — are seeing staggering prices. Here is the list of what a gallon of regular gas looked like on Monday, May 16th, for in the nine PIA Western Alliance states.
Alaska — $4.887 Arizona — $4.759 California — $5.983 Idaho — $4.515 Montana — $4.278 New Mexico — $4.289 Nevada — $5.179 Oregon — $4.999 Washington — $5.033
