HOUSTON (AP) - Retail gasoline prices across Texas have risen by a penny this week.

AAA Texas on Thursday reported that average cost at the gas pump has reached $3.67 per gallon.

The nationwide gas price average jumped 5 cents this week to hit $3.87 per gallon.

Drivers in Texarkana have the most expensive gasoline statewide at $3.72 per gallon. El Paso has the least expensive gasoline in the weekly survey at $3.55 per gallon.

AAA expects gasoline prices to decline in the coming months as demand declines following the busy summer driving period. Refineries will also be switching from a summer blend to a less expensive winter blend gasoline.
