Fuel Prices Continue Slow Decrease Into December

Fuel prices across the nation, and across the Northwest continue to slowly drop.  This comes as oil prices have decreased $25 per barrel since October.

That has translated into the National average for a gallon of diesel dropping four cents in the past week to $3.15, Washington’s average slipped five cents to $3.48, while Oregon’s price dropped four cents per gallon to $3.33.

As far as the lowest prices we could find locally for diesel:

• $3.32 a gallon in the Tri-Cities
• $3.09 a gallon in Quincy
• $3.29 a gallon in Wenatchee
• $3.29 a gallon in Pendleton
• $3.29 a gallon in Ephrata
• $3.19 a gallon in Moses Lake
• $3.15 a gallon in Yakima
• $3.54 a gallon in Walla Walla
