Gas prices up another 2 cents, near record

Gasoline prices in Rhode Island have increased two cents and are now just three cents below the all-time high, according to AAA Southern New England.

The average price for a gallon of regular, unleaded gasoline is $3.209 per gallon at the self-service pump, according to AAA's weekly survey.

The record high here was reached in 2005 soon after Hurricane Katrina.

Rhode Island is 13 cents below the national average of $3.33 for self-service regular. A year ago at this time the average price of regular unleaded gasoline in Rhode Island was $2.749.

I am from East Providence, but live on the central coast of California. Today our local gas prices are at $3.73 for regular. Be prepared RI, it's heading your way.
