LAS VEGAS (FOX5) -
Gas prices continued to fall for another week in Las Vegas.
According to AAA's Fuel Gauge Report, the average price of regular unleaded was at $3.42 a gallon Monday. That equated to a five-cent fall from the week before.
Gasoline this week is actually five cents down from the price a year ago. The average price of gas was $3.76 a gallon a month before.
The fall in the price of gas also follows a nationwide trend. The average price of gasoline fell some 15 cents per gallon during the last month.
Despite the weeks of price drops, though, analysts believe a rise is coming.
"After a dramatic decline in gasoline prices in virtually every region in the past month, gasoline prices have started to rise," said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. "While I don't necessarily believe that the recent uptick in crude prices will stick, I also don't see prices falling considerably lower until after the conclusion of the summer driving season, when demand declines, and more expensive blends are phased out."
