Gas Price Hikes Slow Slightly After More Than 3 Weeks of Increases

Gas has gone up by 55 cents a gallon since late January.

The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in San Diego County rose today for the 24th consecutive day, but by only four-tenths of a cent, the smallest sum recorded during the streak.

The average price of $4.285 is the highest since Oct. 25, according to figures from the AAA and Oil Price Information Service. and is:

  • 10.2 cents more than one week ago, 
  • 57.5 cents higher than one month ago, and 
  • 19.8 cents greater than one year ago.

The average price has risen 55.8 cents during the streak of increases, the longest since a 37-day streak from Jan. 26-March 2, 2012.

This is a great event. Thank you to all of the volunteers who helped make it a fun and enrichingRead More experience for my family. We need to get the word out about this helpful event in Coronado for the future. It was a learning experience for children and adults alike. I feel better now with my daughter riding her bike on the busy streets of Coronado. Thanks again to all of the Police Officers, Boy Scouts, Girls Scouts and local volunteers.
