Average US gas price falls a penny to $2.25/gallon

CAMARILLO, Calif. (AP) — The average U.S. price of regular-grade gasoline fell a penny over the past two weeks to $2.25 per gallon. Industry analyst Trilby Lundberg of the Lundberg Survey said Sunday prices will likely continue falling due to lower wholesale gasoline prices and a decline in demand. Nationwide, the highest average price for regular-grade gas is in the San Francisco Bay Area at $3.27 per gallon. The lowest average is in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, at $1.77 per gallon. The average price of diesel in the survey taken Friday was down a penny from two weeks earlier at $2.51 a gallon.
