在3月和4月的持续下跌后，美国的平均汽油价格在5月份大幅上涨。根据美国能源信息管理局(EIA)的说法，普通汽油的平均价格为4.33美元。这是一个历史新高，超过了2022年3月14日创下的4.32美元的纪录。对于柴油来说，消息更糟，每加仑5.62加元，是的，这也是历史新高。这比上周创下的5.50美元的纪录高出了12美分。

值得注意的是，环境署每周发布一次信息。因此，最新的数据来自5月9日，但在下次更新中，价格可能会更高。AAA计算（5月13日）的报告显示，全国平均汽油价格为每加仑4.43美元。这比EIA的报告高出10美分，柴油价格也高于5.56美元。总体而言，仅过去两周柴油价格上涨了近50美分，而汽油价格上涨了23美分。

最昂贵的地区仍然是西部各州，特别是加州，那里的天然气价格为5.87美元。美国中部的价格最低，平均价格接近4美元。目前，乔治亚州的最便宜，为3.95美元。另一个低于4.00美元的州是堪萨斯州，仅为每加仑3.99美元。

石油市场仍存在一些波动，价格略有上涨，但没有达到我们在汽油和柴油方面看到的创纪录水平。截至5月13日，布伦特原油价格收于111.40美元，比前一天增加了3.94美元。WTI原油价格也上涨至110.30美元，上涨了4.15美元。仍远低于3月份俄罗斯入侵乌克兰后的创纪录高点。

美国离阵亡将士纪念日只有两周的时间，这标志着夏季旅游季节的非正式开始。汽油和柴油价格处于历史高点，看起来游客们将支付比以往任何时候都更多的费用。

Gas Prices In US Are Back To Record Highs, Oil Up Only Slightly

AAA reports a national average price of $4.43 for a gallon of regular gas.

After several weeks of steady declines through March and April, average gasoline prices in the US have risen sharply in May. According to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), the national average price for regular-grade gas currently stands at $4.33. That is a new record high, exceeding the previous record of $4.32 set on March 14, 2022. The news is even worse for diesel, which stands at $5.62 per gallon and yes, that's also a record high. It's 12 cents more than the previous record of $5.50, set just last week.

It's important to note that the EIA publishes information on a weekly basis. As such the most recent data comes from May 9, but prices are likely to be even higher in the next update. AAA calculates daily averages, and its report for today (May 13) shows a national average gasoline price of $4.43 per gallon. That's 10 cents more than the EIA's report, and diesel is also higher at $5.56. Overall, in just the last two weeks diesel has increased nearly 50 cents, while gasoline has jumped 23 cents.

The most expensive areas continue to be western states, specifically California where gas costs $5.87. The central United States offers the lowest prices, with averages close to $4.00. Presently, Georgia has the cheapest gas at $3.95. The only other state under $4.00 is Kansas, though just barely at $3.99 per gallon.

There is still some volatility in the oil market and prices have risen slightly, but not to record levels as we've seen with gasoline and diesel. As of May 13, Brent crude closed up at $111.40, a modest increase of $3.94 from the previous day. WTI crude was also up at $110.30, a jump of $4.15. Both levels are still well under record highs seen in March following Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

The United States is just two weeks away from Memorial Day weekend, which marks the unofficial kickoff to the summer travel season. And with gasoline and diesel prices at all-time highs, it looks like travelers will be paying more than ever to hit the open road.
