AAA: As Summer Ends, Gas Prices Will Drop
Find the cheapest gas in the Northampton-area.
In Pennsylvania, today’s average price of self-serve gasoline is $3.800 up 2.1 cents from a week ago, but prices should drop as demand decreases with the end of the summer driving season, according to AAA’s Fuel Gauge Report.
However, the report indicates, regional supply and distribution issues, hurricane concerns or market moving events could keep prices higher temporarily in the coming months.
In the Bucks and Montgomery Counties, the average price for self-serve regular unleaded gasoline is $3.826 per gallon, which is up 1.5 cents from a week ago, 15.9 cents higher than a month ago and 14 cents higher than a year ago.
