The national average for the same period dropped 2.9 cents per gallon to $3.43 per gallon, according to .
Statewide, Sunday’s pump prices on average were 81 cents per gallon higher than the same day a year ago and 2.3 cents per gallon higher than a month ago.

“The national average is just one penny away from being the lowest we’ve seen since the start of March, even as crude oil prices have risen,” said Patrick DeHaan, Senior Petroleum Analyst. “Just in the last week, wholesale prices have moved 13 cents per gallon between the high and low, so it does remain surprising that average prices have moved very little.”
