Gas Prices Continue to Fall Nationwide, Providing Relief to Drivers Ahead of Holidays
-
Gas prices have fallen for 7 straight weeks and the national average is now over 30 cents cheaper than a month ago.
-
9 states now have average gas prices below $3 per gallon, with 4 more states expected to follow suit soon.
-
Prices are falling due to drops in crude oil prices, weakened gas demand, and the switch to cheaper winter fuel blends.
-
Without major crude disruptions, gas prices are expected to keep falling through the holidays.
-
A wider Middle East conflict could send crude prices soaring again and reverse the downward gas price trend.
