Fuel bills could get more expensive this week. Prices are up overall, with several factors at play.
Diesel prices are up around $0.10 this week compared to last and are holding around $3.49 per gallon nationwide. Gasoline is also up, with average prices around $2.99 per gallon, which is unchanged from last week.
