GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Average gasoline prices in Green Bay have fallen 13.1 cents per gallon in the last week, averaging $2.85/g today, according to GasBuddy’s survey of 127 stations in Green Bay. Prices in Green Bay are 67.9 cents per gallon lower than a month ago and stand 11.8 cents per gallon lower than a year ago.
Neighboring areas and their current gas prices:
Appleton- $2.69/g, down 14.8 cents per gallon from last week’s $2.83/g.
Wisconsin- $2.84/g, down 16.5 cents per gallon from last week’s $3.00/g.
Michigan- $3.22/g, down 20.8 cents per gallon from last week’s $3.43/g.
“Not only has the decline in gasoline prices lasted five straight weeks, with again every state seeing a weekly decline in its average, but average diesel prices have fallen in 49 states over the last week as well. The relief is saving Americans roughly $20 per fill-up compared to six months ago,” said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy.
“On the previously hard-hit West Coast, average prices have fallen nearly $2 per gallon since October. Fifteen states now have average gasoline prices of $2.99 or less, with several more to join this week. We remain on schedule to see the national average gas price fall below $3 by Christmas, with diesel set to fall 50 cents to $1 per gallon over the next six weeks or so. While the Keystone Pipeline shutdown has been getting some attention, motorists need not worry much about the oil-carrying pipeline for now. There is no expected impact to gasoline prices as of now.”
Wisconsin ranks at the bottom of the list of states with the most expensive gas prices.
The national average price of diesel has fallen 14.9 cents in the last week and stands at $4.91 per gallon.
