Gas price expected to move up
Motorists filling up with gas today will find prices that are 1.5 cents cheaper than a week ago. The state average of $2.31 is eight cents cheaper than a month ago, but 26 cents more than this time last year. Despite the decline, gasoline has averaged the highest price for the month of March in four years. "Gasoline should slide a few cents more this week, based on last week's decline in wholesale prices," said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA . "Pump prices are sliding right now because crude and gasoline output have remained strong. However, gas prices are still forecast to rise 20 cents in the coming months, as demand climbs and refineries switch to summer blend gasoline." On average, motorists are paying $3 more for a full tank compared to this time last year.
