Right now, the average price we pay in the Utica/Rome region is $2.77 a gallon, that's $.03 lower than a week ago, $.07 lower than a month ago and $.17 lower than a year ago.
Among the reasons for the relief is less expensive crude oil prices, as well as lower demand and the change to winter-blend gasoline, however, hurricane season can often disrupt decreases at the pump.
