Gas prices tileChattanooga gas prices are continuing to drop, falling another 6.6 cents a gallon, on average, in the past week, according to GasBuddy’s daily survey of 170 gas outlets in Chattanooga.
The online fuel reporting service said today the average price of a gallon of regular gas in Chattanooga is $1.86 per gallon, or 34 cents per gallon below the U.S. average. Gas stations on Signal Mountain Road in Chattanooga today are selling gas as low as $1.69 per gallon – the lowest prices since the yearly low reached in February.
Including the change in gas prices in Chattanooga during the past week, Chattanooga gas prices average 80.2 cents per gallon less than the same day one year ago and are 6.8 cents per gallon lower than a month ago.
GasBuddy analysts predict gas prices should fall even more this fall.
“October ends with the Halloween tradition of trick or treating. The good news for drivers is that the treats should extend into November,” said Jeff Pelton, a GasBuddy’s senior petroleum analyst. “As refineries finish up their planned and in some cases unplanned (notably in the Midwest) rounds of maintenance, gasoline should return to the pumps at very high levels. That, coupled with the lower demand that comes with the fall season, should push November retail prices to fall another 10 to 12 cents.”
