The national average price for a gallon of diesel fuel increased 2.4 cents last week to $2.526, according to the Energy Information Administration. The biggest rise came in the Central Atlantic, which recorded an increase of 3.3 cents. The smallest rise came in the Rocky Mountain region, where diesel ticked up just one-tenth of a cent. Diesel climbed in all but one of the 10 regions of the country that EIA surveys for its report. The West Coast excluding California was the only area to see a drop, which came in at 1.8 cents.
