"Spring Surge: Gas Prices Reach Four-Month Highs Across the U.S."

As spring approaches, the national average gas price has risen to $3.39, with demand increasing and oil prices climbing. The top 10 states with the largest gas price increases since February include Ohio, Missouri, and Kansas, while California, Hawaii, and Washington are the top three most expensive gas markets in the US. AAA attributes the rise in gas prices to more expensive oil, with crude oil accounting for about 60% of gas prices.
