Scot Bertram, Michigan gas prices finally dropping

Here are 3 big things you need to know—

 

One — Around 20-thousand people are expected when Vice President Harris gives what organizers are calling her closing argument to voters tomorrow in Washington, DC.  Harris is scheduled to speak at the Ellipse near the White House.  The site of the speech is the same location where then-President Donald Trump spoke to his supporters on January 6th, 2021.

 

Two ---- Residents in Asheville, North Carolina are trying to regain some sense of normalcy following the devastation of Hurricane Helene as schools reopen today.  Officials say schools will be on an adjusted and abbreviated schedule.  However, there will be no after-school activities today or tomorrow.

 

And number three — The Detroit area's gas prices are down eleven-cents a gallon in the past week.  Triple-A Michigan says the average price in metro Detroit is now three-dollars-20-cents, which is tied with Ann Arbor for the highest average price in the state.  The statewide average is three-dollars-12-cents, a 15-cent drop.
