Orlando gas prices continue to soar

pumping-gasGas prices in Orlando have risen 6.9 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $3.70 per gallon, according to GasBuddy’s daily survey of 856 gas outlets in Orlando.

Including the change in gas prices in Orlando over the past week, prices are 17.8 cents per gallon higher than a month ago and 33.0 cents per gallon higher yesterday, than the same day one year ago.

Nationally, average gas prices increased 2.3 cents per gallon in the last week to $3.62 per gallon, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.

“The national average now stands at its highest level since last August,” said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. “The advance in prices has continued, with the worst jumps in areas of California, and southern states, where prices have increased anywhere from 15 to 30 cents per gallon in some cases. The increases will likely continue to persist, at worst for another month or so, but at best, we could see some relief arrive as soon as May rolls in,” DeHaan said.
