Kansas avg. gasolineprice falls 3.8 cents

Average retail gasoline prices in Kansas have fallen 3.8 cents pergallon in the past week, averaging $3.53/gal. Sunday. This compareswith the national average that has fallen 2.9 cents per gallon in thelast week to $3.77/gal., according to gasoline price website Kansas-GasPrices.com.Including the change in gas prices in Kansas during the past

week, prices yesterday were 29.5 cents per gallon lower than thesame day one year ago and are 22.2 cents per gallon lower than amonth ago. The national average has decreased 13.4 cents pergallon during the last month and stands 15.9 cents per gallon lowerthan this day one year ago.“I’d probably sound like a broken record at this point if I were to

tell folks that crude prices breached and fell under $100 late lastweek. I'm sure I’ll be flooded with motorists asking why gasolineprices haven’t fallen yet,” chuckled GasBuddy.com SeniorPetroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. “Either way, it’s great news formotorists – but some hot spots may burn motorists before they seeany sizable relief. When I mention hot spots, I’m thinking of theWest Coast – where supply has dropped considerably, causingtightness and perhaps higher prices. The rest of the country,however, should see short term relief continue ahead of MemorialDay, easing unfounded fears of the national average hitting $5/gal.,or even $4/gal.”
