Tim’s Observations:
Normally, Wyoming’s average price per gallon has lagged behind the national average by 15 to 20 cents. While prices nationally have dropped a few cents, Wyoming’s have gone up. The only question is, will Wyoming pass the national average at some point?
While writing this report, I double-checked our state and national averages. Wyoming is now equal to the national average of $4.86 per gallon. That didn’t take very long.
