How gas prices have changed in Arizona in the last week [Video]

STACKER — Gasoline prices rose on average as a longer-than-usual February came to a close this week, and analysts expect prices to go higher.

Oil prices are expected to continue rising, influenced by the ongoing conflict in the Middle East and the war in Ukraine, and more expensive summer blends of fuel will soon be arriving at gas stations this spring.

Refineries in the Rocky Mountain states are also operating at reduced capacity over the past week, according to Energy Information Administration data. That means drivers in states including Colorado and Wyoming could see increased prices at the pump in response. Oregon, Wisconsin, Washington, and Michigan saw the largest increases in gas prices over the past week.
