A national levelthe average price of gasoline fell slightly in recent weeks and stood at US$3,08 per gallon as of Nov. 12, according to AAA data. This decrease is attributed to a decrease in seasonal demand and the drop in temperatures, as explained Patrick De Haanhead of petroleum analysis at GasBuddy.
De Haan notes that this trend could continue: “With the average price of gasoline in the US now at $2.95 per gallon, the lowest since 2021, it appears to be only a matter of time before the national average falls below $3 per gallon for the first time since May 2021, something we have already seen with diesel prices.”
For Florida residents, in this scenario, the northern areas of the state offer more affordable options, while the tourist and more urbanized areas of the south continue to have higher prices. With the arrival of the cold season, experts’ expectations point to a gradual decrease in fuel prices, which could benefit many drivers in the coming months.
