Call it reverse sticker-shock, Washington drivers are finally seeing lower prices at the pump.

The average price per gallon has fallen nearly 20 cents in Washington in the last week.

Last Friday, the average was $4.28. As of this Friday, it was under $4.10, and falling.

Even though gas prices in Washington are starting to fall, the state still has the highest gas prices in the lower 48.

But as gas supplies continue to increase with West Coast refineries coming back on line, gas prices in Washington should continue to fall.
