CAMARILLO, Calif. (AP) — After months of dropping, gas prices are back on the upswing.

The average U.S. price of a gallon of gasoline has surged seven cents in the last three weeks. That's according to the Lundberg Survey of fuel prices released Sunday that puts the price of a gallon of regular at $3.32.

 
Midgrade costs an average of $3.50 a gallon, and premium is $3.63. Diesel remained unchanged at $3.96 a gallon.

Of the places surveyed in the lower 48 states, Salt Lake City has the nation's lowest average price at $3.04. Long Island, N.Y., has the highest at $3.75.

In California, the lowest average price was $3.46 in Sacramento and the highest was $3.65 in Bakersfield. The average statewide for a gallon of regular was $3.59, up a dime.

Get ready for gas prices to continue to rise all the way into summer.  The experts were saying it could go as high as 6.00 a gal.

I actually heard the opposite. At least up here close to Canada. I heard the next two years thy expect it to trend down .30 a gallon. Some of that die to refining capabilities of Canadian crude up north. Thing is will that hold or is the dummie in charge going to find a way to throw an excise in Canadian crude to kill that little treat? No source. This was on the blurbs in my local talk radio. I will say the last 3 years they keep saying its going  to 5 and 6 and it hasn't yet so I am a bit skeptical.
