Gas prices, already over $3 at the pump, due to rise another 10 to 15 cents in coming weeks

NEW YORK – Millions of Americans planning car trips for the Thanksgiving weekend are finding they need to once again factor soaring gas prices into their budgets.

Gas at the pump is within striking distance of May's all-time record of $3.227 a gallon, having risen 0.6 cent overnight to a national average of $3.111, according to AAA and the Oil Price Information Service. Fred Rozell, retail pricing director at the service, said gas may rise another 10 to 15 cents a gallon in the coming weeks as it catches up with oil prices that have soared close to $100 a barrel.



“We think there's room for the price nationally to set a new record,” said Geoff Sundstrom, an AAA spokesman.

Prices are highest in California, where retail prices averaged $3.401 a gallon Wednesday.

3. It seems like gas raises $.05 every time I drive by the station.
It's $3.45 where I live, a few weeks ago it was $2.97. In LA this morning it was $3.67.
