What was the biggest Wyoming news story of 2021?

Gas prices in Wyoming and across the country have seen a slight decline in the past week over fears of a new COVID-19 variant.

Gas prices are higher than they've been since 2014, Wyoming's state average is around $.09 higher than the National average.

In Wyoming, it's been awhile since we have gotten any sort of price break at the gas pump. While it has looked like it could be trending toward a decent price decrease over the past month, the national average gas price has been on the rise this week and that doesn't bode well for Wyoming's average price across the state to continue its recent trend.

As Labor Day Weekend approaches when many people will be traveling, a constant topic at the top of mind for all motorists is the price of gas, especially with such high prices in Wyoming. Meanwhile, about 1,400 miles away, Hurricane Ida has devastated New Orleans, LA, and in the storm's path were several oil refineries, some of which were forced to shutdown production.

No one wants to drive too far to save.

We've seen this coming for a while now and we're not happy about it. The price of gas is on the rise and doesn't look like it's stopping anytime soon.

For the tenth consecutive week, the price of gasoline has is on the rise across the country. The national average has increased another 5.9 cents per gallon to a nationwide average of $2.86 per gallon. In Wyoming, despite being consistently below the nation average, we're quickly climbing towards it.

Oil prices have gained some ground, but Wyoming gas prices are slightly down.

John Hofmeister says the low prices will end sooner than motorist think.
