I wonder if the problem is at least partially evaporation. The last couple of weeks it has been unusually hot and dry here, yet I haven't been riding much because I've been doing job interviews and wearing a suit & tie to these.
Today I rode to work, saw I was low on gas and stopped to fill up. I was surprised to see my bike took a fair bit more gas than usual. When I checked the mileage it worked out to be only 41 MPG, which is a good 10% or more lower than usual.
