Gas prices are surging past $4 a gallon in Iowa and Nebraska, with Iowa hitting $4.13 and Nebraska at $4.02 — a sharp 34-cent spike in just one week. Council Bluffs mirrors Nebraska’s rate at $4.03. While nationally prices rose 5 cents, Iowa’s jump was far steeper than Nebraska’s 10-cent climb. Experts warn relief is unlikely even if global conflicts end, citing low global reserves and a slowing U.S. economy fueled by higher fuel costs that curb spending. For everyday drivers and food banks like the Heartland Food Bank, this pinch is real — with some saying $4 a gallon eats into hourly wages. Looking ahead, prices could climb again toward May’s highs of over $4.30, depending on volatile U.S.-Iran tensions and global supply dynamics.
