Gas prices in the region have dropped an average of 14 cents to $3.38 per gallon of regular unleaded gasoline, according to the latest monthly fuel gauge report released by the American Automobile Association.

AAA spokeswoman Cynthia Harris said this significant decrease in gas prices is caused by slowing demand combined with an abundance of output at oil refineries.

The national average is currently $2.58 per gallon and has consistently fallen for 27 consecutive days, according to AAA.
