The U.S. Energy Information Administration warned Tuesday that gas prices could rise an additional 15 cents a gallon in the latest run-up

“Our analysis basically says that … it could be another 15 cents, but that depends on what happens in the market and other things,” administration director Adam Sieminski told Reuters after a Senate hearing on gasoline prices.

Gasoline prices have jumped nearly 15 cents from a week ago to $3.64 a gallon on Monday, the EIA reported.

Gas prices in the Chicago area averaged $4.11 Tuesday, up from $3.84 a week ago but still off $4.31 a month ago.
