Gas prices in the Midwest are higher than those in the rest of the country.

Late Monday afternoon, the average for Ohio was $3.86 – 10 cents per gallon above the national average, according to GasBuddy.com.

At this time last year, gas prices were about $2.60 per gallon in the Buckeye State.

There's no one factor contributing to the spiking prices, other than a whole lot of bad luck at the refineries that supply the oil, said Kimberly Schwind, a spokeswoman for the AAA Ohio Auto Club.
