KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — Gas prices in Michigan are up slightly after weeks of decline.
Michigan drivers are paying an average of $3.94 per gallon for regular unleaded, 2 cents more than last week. The price is 20 cents less than this time last month but still $1.11 more than this time last year.
Motorists are paying an average of $59 for a full 15-gallon tank of gasoline, marking an increase of about $8 from when prices were their highest last November.
At the close of Friday’s formal trading session, WTI decreased by $1.72 to settle at $102.07. The crude oil market remains volatile heading into the last week of April. Traders continue to balance supply tightness amid a push by the U.S. and its allies to remove as many Russian barrels from the market as possible while also facing demand concerns as the COVID-19 pandemic lingers.
“After weeks of declining prices, Michigan motorists are seeing slightly higher prices at the pump,” said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson, AAA-The Auto Club Group. “With crude prices continuing to trade above $100 a barrel, pump prices will likely remain elevated.”
