Fresno Gas Prices Surge: Latest Insights on Rising Fuel Costs
US gas prices are continuing to rise, with the average price in Fresno increasing from $4.69 to $4.84 in just over a week. The national average is $3.82 per gallon. The rising prices are unusual given that fewer people are fueling up their cars this summer compared to previous years. The increase in gas prices is due to a combination of factors including record temperatures, which have caused refineries to operate below capacity, and production cuts by major oil-producing countries.
