(Lawrenceburg, Ind.) – Folks who see gas around $3.79 or cheaper may want to top off their fuel tanks soon.
Late Thursday, gas price tracking website GasBuddy.com sent out a gas price hike alert warning that prices in Indiana could rise to between $3.99 and $4.09 in the next 36 hours.
The site calculated the odds of the increase at 90 percent.
“Wholesale prices have risen today as gasoline standards start moving towards summer specs, driving prices higher,” the alert said.
