Did you notice the jump at the pump? AAA Michigan says gas prices in Metro Detroit are climbing.

Metro Detroit's current average is about $2.12 per gallon, which is about 13 cents higher than last week, according to AAA.

The statewide average for gas is the same, $2.12 per gallon, which is up 14 cents from last week's statewide average.

AAA says the highest prices in the state can be found in Ann Arbor this week.

The agency says distributors are still in the process of delivering summer-blend gas to stations, which is likely contributing to the spike in prices.

Experts at AAA predict gas prices to remain relatively stable in the coming weeks, since the market will be well supplied.
