Gas prices jump in Cumberland

October 10th, 2020 by WCBC Radio

In the new weekly report from the Energy Information Administration (EIA), gas demand grew, but is below last year’s rate in early October. Lower demand, even as total domestic stocks decreased, has helped pump prices to mostly hold steady this week nationwide. Pump prices will likely decline as demand drops due to fewer road trips taken in the fall.

 

The gas price average in Maryland today is $2.26, up four cents from last week, down respectively a penny in the last month and 22 cents from this date last year.

 

Today’s national gas price average is $2.18, down respectively a penny in the last week, three cents in the last month, and 46 cents from this time last year.
