The U.S. national average price of regular gasoline has risen above $3 per gallon, ending a 13-week streak below that threshold. Prices increased nearly 8 cents this week, driven by broader global tensions and rising oil prices. Regional disparities remain stark—Oklahoma and Arkansas average mid-$2 ranges, while California, Hawaii, and Washington exceed $4 per gallon.

This uptick could pressure consumer budgets, particularly for commuting and travel. Market watchers note crude oil fluctuations take time to reflect at the pump, suggesting further volatility ahead. The national average last dipped below $3 in December 2021, marking a significant shift in energy cost trends.
