Gas prices in the Yakima metropolitan area averaged $2.05 a gallon Thursday for unleaded regular, according to AAA. That’s a 22-cent decline from just one week ago and a big drop from $3.12, the local average a month ago.
The state average was $2.17 a gallon, while the national average was just a few cents below the local average at $2.02 a gallon.
