After more than 100 days of respite, Long Island gas prices are creeping back upward again.
Prices in West Hempstead were up to $3.29, but ironically that is still down from the Long Island average of $3.47.
The fluctuations are said to be a result of recent cuts to oil production by OPEC.
The White House is now threatening to punish Saudi Arabia for supporting the move.
