COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Gasoline prices have jumped 8 cents from last week at Ohio pumps and are almost 30 cents higher than a year ago.
The state's average price for regular was $3.39 in a survey Monday from auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and Wright Express. That compares with about $3.31 last Monday.
Last year at this time, Ohio motorists were paying $3.11, on average.
Analysts say fuel prices could remain volatile because of tensions with Iran and economic concerns in Europe.
