CAMARILLO, Calif. (AP) — After months of dropping, gas prices are back on the upswing.

Midgrade costs an average of $3.50 a gallon, and premium is $3.63. Diesel remained unchanged at $3.96 a gallon.

Of the places surveyed in the lower 48 states, Salt Lake City has the nation's lowest average price at $3.04. Long Island, N.Y., has the highest at $3.75.

In California, the lowest average price was $3.46 in Sacramento and the highest was $3.65 in Bakersfield. The average statewide for a gallon of regular was $3.59, up a dime.
