A MIXED BAG OF GAS PRICING ACROSS THE STATE
"It's been another generally sideways week for the national average, which has remained stuck in the $3.50-$3.60 per gallon range since late April with fundamentals generally holding pretty stable, even though oil prices have bounced around between $65-$80 in the same timeframe," says Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy.

ARE LOWER GAS PRICES ON THE WAY?
De Haan went on to state that "we could see the national average nudge a bit lower in the week ahead, should oil prices fail to rally. But, with developments including the Wagner group destabilizing and testing Russia, there can always be last minute shifts that impact prices, which we continue to watch for and hope the market remains calm."
