Gas Prices Fall Slightly in Idaho

Idaho drivers saw a relief at the pumps this week, but the feeling could be short-lived.

According to AAA, the rising price of crude oil could keep gas prices high well into the fall.

The average price for regular in the Gem State is $3.75 per gallon, which is two cents less than a week ago and a nickel cheaper than a month ago.

Meanwhile, the U.S. average currently sits at $3.19, a penny cheaper than a week ago and four cents less than a month ago.

While fuel demand is falling as people stay closer to home, pressure on the supply side is growing.

On Monday the average price of gas in Boise was $3.86 a gallon.
