Diesel prices fall again after slight spike last week
Diesel prices have dropped slightly after bouncing back from a big plunge.

Diesel prices keep bouncing.

After a huge drop two weeks ago, followed by a bounce back upward, the prices per gallon of diesel have dropped again, but not as drastically as the plunge of two weeks ago.

The national average price for a gallon of diesel dropped nearly two cents from $3.494 to $3.476.

Three regions made the difference in this week’s drop.

The West Coast dropped a little more than five cents from $4.130 to $4.079 while the West Coast less California, fell from $3.726 to $3.645, a more than 8-cent drop.

The Gulf Coast also fell by nearly four cents per gallon from $3.190 to $3.154.

The New England and Central Atlantic regions did rise, but by only by a quarter and a third of a cent. The Midwest dropped by one-hundredth of a cent.
