Gas prices in Michigan jumped their highest point of 2021 last week, that’s according to AAA of Michigan. The current average statewide price is $3.33 a gallon, up 14-cents from last month and $1.20 from last year. The auto club points to rising crude oil prices, due in part to a recent OPEC decision not to increase production, as reason why. Locally, St. Clair County pumps are currently asking $3.35 on average for a gallon of gas.
