SoCal gas prices jump leading up to Labor Day weekend traveling

GAS PRICES rose 10 cents in the last week across Southern California, averaging $4.59 per gallon statewide.

Gas prices have increased by 10 cents or more in the last week across most of Southern California — only the second time this year that the region has seen increases of that magnitude, the Auto Club of Southern California said in a statement Thursday.

"Also, for the first time this year in some Southern California areas, pump prices are higher than they were on this date in 2024," Auto Club spokesperson Doug Shupe said in a release.
