From AAA
Florida gas prices jumped 12 cents last week, then declined 6 cents through the weekend.
On Sunday, the state average was $3.10 per gallon. That's 7 cents more than a week ago, 2 cents less than last month, and 25 cents less than this time last year.
"Florida gas prices continue bouncing up and down, yet have remained within the same 25-cent range since early September," said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA - The Auto Club Group. "However, seasonal factors could apply upward pressure on pump prices in the next couple of months. Spring refinery maintenance season generally peaks in late February and March. This combined with higher fuel demand from spring travel and the switch to summer gasoline all typically contribute to higher prices in the spring. For context, last year, gas prices rose 30 cents from late February to the end of March."
Crude oil prices remained steady last week. Friday's closing price was $70.40 per barrel. That's only 34 cents less than the week before.
