Gas Prices Nearly 50 Cents Higher Than Last Year

Notice gas prices these days? AAA Michigan’s latest survey finds an uptick at the pump, averaging $2.42 a gallon across Michigan.

That’s only a couple cents higher than last week, but almost 50 cents higher than last year.

Lingering refinery issues have reduced gasoline inventories in the Great Lakes region, which may have resulted in a jump at the pump.
