HURRICANES AND HEAT CONTINUE TO TAKE THEIR TOLL ON ARIZONA MOTORISTS…SO SAYS AAA ARIZONA. THE AVERAGE PRICE FOR A GALLON OF REGULAR UNLEADED IS UP ANOTHER SEVEN CENTS OVER THE PAST WEEK, TO A STATEWIDE AVERAGE OF $4.32. THAT'S 50-CENTS ABOVE THE NATIONAL AVERAGE…

AAA SPOKESMAN JULIAN PAREDES DOUBTS PRICES WILL FALL BELOW THE FOUR-DOLLAR-A-GALLON MARK, EVEN AS CHEAPER WINTER-BLEND GAS COMES INTO THE MARKET AND DEMAND DECLINES. PAREDES SAYS THE MOST EXPENSIVE GAS IN ARIZONA CAN BE FOUND IN MARICOPA COUNTY AT $4.53, WHILE THE CHEAPEST GAS IS IN GREENLEE COUNTY AT $3.91.

DRIVERS IN PRESCOTT ARE STILL FINDING REGULAR UNLEADED GAS JUST UNDER $4 PER GALLON AT $3.99.
