Maryland Gas Prices Drop Six Cents This Week, AAA Says

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Good news for drivers: the average price of a gallon of gas in Maryland is down six cents from last week, AAA Mid-Atlantic said.

As of Friday, the state's average gas price was $2.36 per gallon, down from $2.42 the week before. Baltimore and Annapolis' average prices were slightly lower at $2.32 per gallon.

Compared to last year, gas prices are down an average of two cents.

The national average for a gallon of gas is $2.40, AAA said.

It's not all good news; AAA said the switchover to summer blend gas could drive up prices "in coming weeks."
