Pump Prices continue to drop in Georgia 

Georgia gas prices continue to decline, reports AAA. Georgia motorists are now paying an average price of $2.40 per gallon for regular unleaded. Monday’s state average is 2 cents less than a week ago, 19 cents less than this time last month, and 29 cents less than this time last year.  It now costs $36.00 to fill a 15-gallon tank of gasoline. That is $6.60 less than what motorists paid last May when pump prices hit their 2018 peak of $2.84 per gallon. “As Hurricane Dorian is an Atlantic storm, it will not impact critical Gulf Coast infrastructure (refineries and pipelines) like Hurricane Harvey did in 2017,” said Montrae Waiters, spokeswoman, AAA – The Auto Club Group. “As it appears now the storm is not expected to disrupt Gulf Coast drilling and refining operations, but could dampen demand in some coastal Southern states.” AAA updates fuel price averages daily at www.GasPrices.AAA.com. Every day up to 130,000 stations are surveyed based on credit card swipes and direct feeds in cooperation with the Oil Price Information Service (OPIS) and Wright Express for unmatched statistical reliability.
