Gas prices increase
CAMARILLO, Calif. -- Gas prices jumped more than 5 cents a gallon in the past two weeks, largely because of supply problems related to Hurricane Ivan, an industry analyst said Sunday.
For Sept. 10 through Friday, the combined national average for all grades of gas hit $1.94 a gallon, up about 5 cents from the previous two weeks.
"Most of this is hurricane-related," said Trilby Lundberg, who publishes the semimonthly Lundberg Survey.
The survey polls about 6,000 gas stations across the United States. The average national price for self-serve regular, the biggest seller, reached $1.91.
