Gas Prices Continue To Drop

Gas prices are down eight cents this week in Western Pennsylvania.  AAA says the average stands at $3.31 per gallon.  Here in Washington our average remains a little higher at $3.35.  The national average has dropped more than five cents over the past week to $3.03.  Several factors are behind the drop, including falling crude oil prices, lower gasoline demand and cheaper winter-blend gasoline at the pump. Today’s national average is 16 cents less than one month ago and 15 cents lower than one year ago.
