(Undated) – Gas prices have been on the rise across the country on the heels of “strong demand.” According to GasBuddy Head of Petroleum Analysis, Patrick De Haan, government data showed the third straight week with U.S. gasoline demand over the critical nine-million-barrel-per-day mark, putting upward pressure on average prices. De Haan says with the Fed meeting this week to potentially alter interest rates again, we are likely to see some market fluctuation. However, he says the good news has continued for average diesel prices, which again fell last week to their lowest since early 2022. The current national average for a gallon of regular unleaded is $3.58 a gallon. It’s $3.91 a gallon for diesel.
