“As we approach the Fourth of July later this week, drivers have seen the national average price of gasoline rise slightly for the third week in a row,” said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy. “While the increases have been quite moderate, with oil remaining above $80 per barrel, we could continue to see the national average rise slightly. Other areas that have seen price cycles saw prices spike earlier in the week, but these areas are now starting to see prices fall again. For many Americans traveling for the Fourth of July holiday, prices in most areas are very comparable to what we saw last July 4th.
