  Gas prices in Arkansas have increased a week before drivers are expected to hit the road for Memorial Day travel.

Gas prices in Arkansas have seen a significant increase, jumping by 17 cents per gallon over the past week, with the average price now standing at $3.17 per gallon, according to the latest data from GasBuddy. This surge is part of a broader trend affecting the entire country, where gas prices have risen by an average of 12.3 cents per gallon in the last week. The increase in Arkansas is attributed to a combination of factors including higher crude oil prices, refinery issues, and the transition to summer gasoline blends. Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy, noted that while the rise is concerning, it is not unexpected given the seasonal changes and other market dynamics. He also mentioned that drivers should brace for potential further increases as the summer driving season approaches.
