 Gas prices in the Wilmington area were down just a bit last week, according to the weekly survey of gas stations by Gas Buddy. The average price for regular was $3.46 a gallon. That's a penny lower than the week before and the same price as this time in 2023. While Hurricane Beryl does not appear to have caused any supply disruptions yet, Gas Buddy analysts say it's a reminder that during hurricane season, Gulf storms can have a significant impact on gas prices later in the summer.
