Washington gas prices continue to rise early in the new year. Triple-a has the statewide average now at 4-03 per gallon.

Nationwide, gas prices climbed 11 cents from a week ago to an average of 3-39 per gallon. Analysts blame higher crude oil prices for the rise at the pump and expect continued volatility ahead.
