Gas
tracking tech company Gas Buddy
thinks prices will rise dramatically next year going from the current average across the
country at $3.02 to $3.41 a gallon.
The company says prices will likely peak
around Memorial Day.
It is
basing its forecast on low oil production from OPEC and refinery closures due
to COVID-19. "We could see a national average that flirts with, or
in a worst-case scenario, potentially exceeds $4 a gallon," said Patrick
De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy.
Locally, AAA says the average in Westchester County for a gallon of
regular is $3.68.
In
Rockland, it is $3.66 and in Dutchess it is $3.52.
Those
are all above the New York state average, which is $3.49.
According
to Gas Buddy, the Sunoco on North Broadway in White Plains is charging $3.31 if
you're paying cash.
