Gas Prices

Gas prices reached a two-month high of $3.58 before settling down over the weekend.

A AAA spokesperson says it's partially due to China's plan to reopen its economy.

The average price of a gallon of gas fell 6 cents from the previous week.

The average price of a gallon of gas could fall 10-20 cents over the next few weeks.

GasBuddy predicts that prices will peak to at an average of $4.10 to $4.45 in the greater Tampa Bay region.

Sunday's state average is almost 20 cents per gallon less than what travelers paid at the pump last Christmas.

Pump prices are already below what drivers paid during last year's holidays.

The average price dropped 12 cents last week, and some locations are seeing gas below $3 a gallon.

AAA forecasts 2. 9 million Floridians will travel for the holiday weekend. More than 90 percent of them will drive.

Last week, the average price of a gallon of gas reached $3.58 before settling back by 2 cents.

The state's gas tax holiday expires on Nov. 1, meaning Florida drivers will be paying an extra 25 cents a gallon.

Prices at the pump are falling, which is welcome news for Democrats this election season. But politicians have very limited control over energy costs.
