Gas prices remain mostly unchanged since last week
Texas gas prices are unchanged in the past week, averaging $1.90/g today, according to GasBuddy’s daily survey of 13,114 stations. Likewise, local prices are mostly unchanged over last week, as well.
Gas prices in Texas are 6.5 cents per gallon higher than a month ago and stand 60.7 cents per gallon lower than a year ago.
“Similar to watching the Cubs game last night with a quiet and empty stadium, gasoline prices have been quiet last week as markets await the next chapter in the coronavirus situation,” said Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis for GasBuddy. “As cases continue to rise, the likelihood rises that gas prices will stabilize and demand may continue to see small decreases, which is the name of the game behind gas prices. I wouldn’t expect much movement until we either see more states being impacted again or we see cases start to drop, either one would provide clarity to where we stand now. For now, motorists are still ‘stuck’ with the lowest summer gas prices in 16 years.”
According to GasBuddy price reports, the lowest price in Texas today is $1.39/g while the highest is $2.69/g, a difference of $1.30/g.
The national average price of gasoline has fallen 2.0 cents per gallon in the last week, averaging $2.18/g today. The national average is up 5.4 cents per gallon from a month ago and stands 58.4 cents per gallon lower than a year ago.
