Los Angeles reports gasoline prices have dropped about 84 cents a gallon in the past month, the steepest decline this year. Analyst Dan Lundberg notes the national average for all grades at 87.96 cents, with self serve averages near 81 cents and full service prices above $1.00. He predicts further decreases into the summer as consumption remains weak.
