UNDATED (WJON News) -- Gas prices continue to rise.
In Minnesota, the average gas price has risen 17.2 cents per gallon averaging $3.60. The national average has gone up 7.6 cents, averaging $3.65.
Gas Buddy says with oil prices touching their highest level of 2023 at nearly $83 per barrel, the national average price of gas continued to inch higher.
