Gas Prices in Minnesota, Nationally Fall in Past Week
UNDATED (WJON News) -- For the first time in weeks, the national average price of gasoline has fallen over the last week. However, the drop may be short-lived as one of the nation's largest refineries partially shut down last week after a fire at a storage tank, and as we see more tropical activity that could lead to further disruption.
Average gas prices in Minnesota have fallen 7.9 cents per gallon last week, averaging $3.65.
The national average price of gas has fallen 4.0 cents, averaging $3.78.
