Ohio motorists are seeing higher gas prices to start the work week.
A gallon of regular gas in Ohio was averaging $2.49 in Monday's survey from auto club AAA, the Oil Price Information Service and WEX Inc. That's up a nickel from a week ago and 12 cents from a month ago. Yet Ohio gas prices remain significantly cheaper than last year at this time, when prices were averaging $3.72 per gallon.
Ohio's average was below the national average Monday, which was about $2.66 per gallon. That's up 4 cents from a week ago, but 99 cents cheaper than last year at this time.
