How gas prices have changed in Spartanburg in the last week
The average cost for a gallon of gasoline hasn't budged in at least a week nationwide. That story looks slightly different, however, in Midwestern states surrounding the Great Lakes region, where a refinery outage is pushing prices upward.
The ExxonMobil refinery in Illinois suffered a power outage in a storm two weeks ago, which has kept it offline ever since. Exxon has yet to say when the facility might be back in operation. The company previously said the earliest it could be restored was by the end of July.
The national average for a gallon of gas is still down by more than 20 cents per gallon compared to a year ago, and it could dip further as the summer comes to an end.
"With the summer winding down and GasBuddy data showing disappointing gasoline demand and struggling oil prices, we could eventually see the national average falling a bit more, especially once the refinery in Illinois restarts operations," GasBuddy analyst Patrick De Haan said in a statement Monday.
