Gas Prices Drop 2.6 Cents In Chattanooga

  • Monday, July 13, 2015
Average retail gasoline prices in Chattanooga have fallen 2.6 cents per gallon in the past week, averaging $2.40 per gallon on Sunday, according to GasBuddy's daily survey of 170 gas outlets in Chattanooga. This compares with the national average that has not moved  in the last week to $2.76 per gallon, according to gasoline price website GasBuddy.com.

Including the change in gas prices in Chattanooga during the past week, prices Sunday were 88.5 cents per gallon lower than the same day one year ago and are 10.1 cents per gallon lower than a month ago.
The national average has decreased 3.9 cents per gallon during the last month and stands 85.0 cents per gallon lower than this day one year ago.


"With the exception of the West Coast, last week saw gas prices moving lower in many regions," said Patrick DeHaan, GasBuddy senior petroleum analyst. "And last week the story at the pump has been completely about the West Coast. Pump prices have surged as a result of a hopefully temporary stoppage of gasoline imports into the West Coast, which the region has relied upon thanks to earlier year refinery issues. Areas of California have set new records for highest single day price increase, and prices will continue to advance for a few more days before things cool off. For the rest of the county, gas prices will resume their decline for the time being, even as gasoline demand remains historically very strong."
