Gas prices increase more than 9 cents

Posted:

ALBANY, NY - Gas prices have increased by more than nine cents over the past two weeks, the first rise since April.

According to the Lundberg Survey, the national average for a gallon of regular unleaded now stands at $3.51, but that is still 46 cents below the April 6th peak of $3.97.

The price of Crude Oil, the largest single component of gasoline, raised $3.00 a barrel on the New York futures market over the past two weeks. Friday closed at more than $90.00 and helped drive prices at the pump upward.
