Gas prices rising

No doubt you've noticed it already, but there has been a large jump in the price of a gallon of gas. The American Automobile Association (AAA), said gas prices had risen 6 cents on the week and that they are likely to go even higher because of the Colonial Pipeline shutdown. On average, according to AAA, the average Ohio gas price went up that exact amount, from $2.77 per gallon to $2.83 per gallon, over the past week. AAA said the stable crude oil prices during a time of “fluctuating” demand helped keep the national gas price jumps to a nominal level in April. AAA also said that once the pipeline does go back to normal, there could still be “residual delays” as the fuel takes about 15 to 18 days to flow from Texas to New York.
