Gas prices weirdness

Some interesting notes from AAA’s Fuelgaugereport.com.

Normally, Rockford’s average gas prices rise and fall with the rest of the state. But today, our average price for regular unleaded dropped almost 2 cents to $2.998 a gallon, even as the rest of the state rose more than a cent to $3.056 a gallon. Most other Illinois metro areas increased (poor Champaign/Urbana went up 10 cents a gallon).

Also, Rockford’s average gas prices dipped to below $3 a gallon for the first time since last fall. Don’t count on that lasting long, though, as demand will pick up in the spring.
