FARGO (KFGO) – The average price of a gallon of gasoline has risen almost 10 cents per gallon in the Lakes Area over the past week.
AAA says the price now averages around $4.17 per gallon across the area. That’s 28 cents higher than a month ago, and $1.32 higher than a year ago.
The national average price is now $4.59 per gallon.
Patrick DeHaan, the head of petroleum analysis for price-tracking website Gas-Buddy, says prices over the Memorial Day weekend will likely be $1.50 higher than they were last year. But, DeHaan says there are indications that price increases are slowing down.
