LAS VEGAS (FOX5) -
Despite a continuing drop, the average gas price in Nevada was still reported as one of the highest in the country, according to AAA's Fuel Gauge Report.
The auto club reported prices between $3.68 and $4.19 for the Silver State on Monday.
As for Las Vegas, regular unleaded gas dropped four cents from the week before on Monday. The average price of gas is at $3.64 a gallon.
The average price of gas nationally on Monday was at $3.43, a drop of four cents from the week before.
"The national average has again decreased in the last week, but the decreases are beginning to slow down," said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan. "Wholesale gasoline prices rose strongly on Friday which could send prices higher in states with among the lowest prices in the United States. The fuel tightness has also continued in NYC- for those in Sandy's wake, fuel availability remains difficult, and is the reason GasBuddy has implemented an emergency fuel availability service."
