Gas Price Update For January 11, 2016

Gas price trend for week of January 11, 2016

Fort Lauderdale, FL – The cost of filling up the tank continued to drop during the past week, with the official U.S. price average falling below the critical $2.00 threshold. According to the Energy Information Administration, the average price of a gallon of regular unleaded dipped over three cents on the week to settle at $1.996 per gallon.

For drivers in most regions, the price of gas is well below the national average, but the cost of gassing-up in California, and the higher prices across the broad west coast region, tend to drag the nationwide averages higher. Aside from the west coast survey district, only the central Atlantic states have a regional price average over $2.00 per gallon, as of the release of the January 11 survey data.

Prices by region are as follows, ranked highest to lowest:

$2.630: PADD 5 WEST COAST (INCL. CA)
$2.053: PADD 1b CENTRAL ATLANTIC
$2.007: PADD 1a NEW ENGLAND

Gas Price Update For January 4, 2016

Gas price trend for week of January 4, 2016

Fort Lauderdale, FL – The price of gas fell for most drivers across the U.S. during the New Year’s holiday, but continuing price increases in California weighed down the national averages, preventing the U.S. weekly price index from changing on the week. That means that, at least technically, the average driver in the United States is paying $2.03 for a gallon of regular unleaded, according to the Energy Information Administration.

For drivers outside of California, the price of gas continued falling in nearly every survey region, including the midwest, where costs had gone up the previous week. The averages across the broader west coast region did not move, even with California removed the formula.

Prices by region are as follows, ranked highest to lowest:

$2.663: PADD 5 WEST COAST (INCL. CA)
