ORLANDO, Fla. \u2014 Gas prices in Orlando increased again over the past week, according to new data from GasBuddy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The average price for a gallon of gasoline in Orlando rose 5 cents in the last week, averaging $4.42 per gallon Monday, according to GasBuddy\u2019s survey of 856 stations in the area.<\/p>\n

Prices in Orlando are 37.5 cents higher than a month ago and $1.51 higher than this time last year, GasBuddy said.<\/p>\n

According to GasBuddy price reports, the cheapest station in Orlando was selling gas for $4.19 per gallon Sunday, while the most expensive was priced at $5 per gallon.<\/p>\n

Statewide, the lowest reported price Sunday was $3.79 per gallon. The highest was $5.59 per gallon.<\/p>\n

The national average price of gasoline rose 5.1 cents in the last week, reaching $4.48 per gallon Monday, according to GasBuddy.<\/p>\n

The national average is up 37.3 cents from a month ago and $1.40 higher than a year ago.<\/p>\n

Nearby, Tampa\u2019s average price rose 7.4 cents to $4.42 per gallon, while Gainesville\u2019s average rose 8.2 cents to $4.47 per gallon. Ocala\u2019s average dropped 1 cent to $4.34 per gallon.<\/p>\n

Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, said prices declined in just six states over the past week, led by parts of the Great Lakes region.<\/p>\n

\u201cThose declines helped pull the national average lower by roughly eight cents over the last several days after oil prices eased mid-week on optimism that the U.S. and Iran could reach a deal,\u201d De Haan said in a statement.<\/p>\n

De Haan said that optimism has since faded, and oil prices moved higher again Sunday.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a result, many states could see another round of price cycling in the days ahead, potentially sending the national average toward the $4.65-per-gallon mark if oil continues climbing,\u201d De Haan said.<\/p>\n

The national average price of diesel increased 0.2 cents from last week and now stands at $5.62 per gallon, GasBuddy said.<\/p>\n
