“Around the country average gas prices have stalled or seen some price declines,” said AAA Hawaiʻi General Manager Liane Sumida. “California remains the only other state with a gas price average higher than $3, with an average price of $3.23. A few other states are in the high $2-a-gallon range, like Alaska at $2.91, Nevada at $2.81 and Oregon at $2.77.”
