Check out the new gas prices. Gas prices in South Florida<\/p>\nGas prices are still going up in South Florida.<\/p>\n
\u201cRising oil prices contributed to the latest jump at the pump,\u201d said Mark Jenkins, spokesman for AAA – The Auto Club Group. \u201cOngoing tensions in the Middle East have created uncertainty about global oil supplies. That uncertainty has placed renewed upward pressure on oil prices. Since oil accounts for about half the price of gasoline, higher crude costs are making their way to gas stations nationwide.\u201d<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, Sept 22, prices are up by double digits in Miami-Dade and Broward, according to AAA. Prices also were up by double digits last week<\/p>\n
The average price in Miami and Fort Lauderdale is 37 cents a gallon higher than a month ago and $1.22 higher than a year ago, according to GasBuddy, a national fuel monitoring service that surveys nearly 1,700 stations in South Florida<\/p>\n
North Florida is the cheapest to pump in Florida \u2014 but increased to over $4 a gallon \u2014 while the Keys and Palm Beach County are the most expensive areas to buy gas, according to AAA.<\/p>\n

What the experts are saying<\/p>\n
\u25aa Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy:<\/p>\n
\u201cAverage gasoline prices rose in virtually every state over the last week, with 45 states seeing increases of more than 3 cents per gallon, led by the Great Lakes region where refinery issues sent Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, and Wisconsin all up more than 30 cents per gallon. Diesel rose in every state, with five states seeing increases exceeding 50 cents per gallon, as continued strikes on Russian oil refineries tighten global diesel supply- a pressure further amplified in the Great Lakes by regional refinery issues. Any broader directional change will depend heavily on overseas developments, and with new Houthi attacks and fresh U.S.-Iran escalations, the outlook remains deeply uncertain.\u201d<\/p>\n
