Average San Diego County gas price rises for 22nd time in 24 days, increasing to $4.838. The national average is just $3.385
SAN DIEGO – The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in San Diego County rose Friday for the 17th consecutive day and 22nd time in 24 days, increasing four-tenths of a cent to $4.838, its highest amount since Dec. 3.
The average price has increased 25.6 cents over the past 24 days, including eight-tenths of a cent Thursday, according to figures from the AAA and Oil Price Information Service. It is 7 cents more than one week ago, 28.5 cents higher than one month ago and 5.5 cents greater than it was one year ago.
“This is despite the fact that oil prices are nearly $20 lower per barrel than this time last year, indicating that other factors are playing a role in the increased prices, such as continued inflation and California’s steady reduction in refinery output and capacity.” The national average price dropped for the 25th time in 27 days, decreasing eight-tenths of a cent to $3.385. It has dropped 12.5 cents over the past 27 days, including four-tenths of a cent Thursday.
The national average price is 3.6 cents less than one week ago, 6.1 cents lower than one month ago, and 15.8 cents below what it was one year ago.Categories
