The price for a gallon of gas in Greater Peoria is back above $4.20 as volatility in the global oil market continues, stemming from the war with Iran.

As of Monday afternoon, the fuel cost-tracking website GasBuddy showed a per-gallon average of $4.37 in the Peoria market.

The average price of gas in the Peoria area is up more than 40 cents a gallon this week, as the war in Iran impacts the global oil market.
