Summer Gas Prices Lower Than Expected

Posted:

WASHINGTON (AP) -  The Energy Department has cut its forecast for this summer's gas prices, saying gasoline will be cheaper this summer than had been expected.

Drivers should pay an average of $3.79 per gallon through September, down 16 cents from last month's prediction and only slightly higher than last summer's average of $3.71 a gallon.  

The price drop is due to a drop in the price of oil.
