Summary

Gas prices are surging back over $4 a gallon as crude oil climbs to $90–$100 a barrel, fueled by Middle East tensions threatening the Strait of Hormuz. States like California and Hawaii now pay over $5 a gallon, while Indiana stays near $3.50. Experts warn higher prices will persist through summer unless regional instability eases.
