Gas prices steady but higher in western Kansas
Hanni notes western Kansas shows more price stability while the eastern part sees more peaks and valleys. Kansas averages $3.23 per gallon per AAA. With winter blends cheaper to produce, prices may drop or hold through the holidays as domestic production rises, demand stays flat, and ethanol supplies remain strong. A weak hurricane season contributes to the favorable outlook.
