Average retail gasoline prices in Savannah have risen 2.4 cents per gallon in the past week to $3.40 gallon on Sunday, according to GasBuddy’s daily survey of 262 gas outlets in Savannah.
The national average has increased 1.8 cents a gallon in the last week to $3.53, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.
Prices Sunday were 12.4 cents a gallon lower than the same day one year ago and 6.8 cents a gallon higher than a month ago. The national average has increased 9.2 cents a gallon during the last month and stands 8.3 cents lower than a year ago.
While gasoline prices are lower than I would have expected a few months ago, there is still some risk for higher prices in the days ahead,” said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan.
