Average retail gasoline prices in Savannah have risen 3.3 cents a gallon in the past week to $3.63 a gallon on Sunday.
The national average, at the same time, has fallen 2.8 cents a gallon to $3.77, according to gasoline price website SavannahGasPrices.com.
Prices Sunday were 26.7 cents a gallon higher than the same day one year ago and are 9.8 cents a gallon lower than a month ago. The national average has decreased 9.0 cents a gallon during the last month and stands 29.6 cents higher than a year ago.
"In the week ahead, we could continue to see declines as wholesale prices fell lower late last week, meaning gas stations have additional room to drop their prices," said GasBuddy.com Senior Petroleum Analyst Patrick DeHaan.
