Gas prices are climbing fast across Miami, with a 32.6-cent jump in just the past week.
The average price for a gallon of regular now stands at $4.07 to start the week, up 33.2 cents from a month ago and $1.06 higher than this time last year.
Prices vary widely across the city. On Sunday, the cheapest station was $3.45 per gallon, while the most expensive reached $5.79, according to GasBuddy.
On Key Biscayne, both gas stations remained unchanged at $4.99 per gallon, keeping gas prices on the Island near the top of the range.
The surge is being felt nationwide as well. Gas prices rose 38.7 cents over the past week, bringing the U.S. average to $4.07.
More increases could be on the way.
“Average gasoline prices surged for many Americans through the first half of last week before easing in some areas after oil prices slipped following President Trump’s announcement of a ceasefire,” said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy. “However, with a breakdown in talks and renewed escalation over the weekend, motorists should prepare for another round of price increases. The move toward a full blockade of the Strait of Hormuz is compounding global supply concerns and risks further disrupting flows, which pushed oil prices sharply higher in Sunday night trading.”
