A small dip in gas prices is evident across Virginia this week.

Gas prices are averaging $4.00 per gallon, a 10-cent decrease from last week’s $4.10 average. That translates to a savings over last week of $1.40 at the pump for an average 14-gallon fill up. 

The decline mirrors what is happening nationally, with average price in the U.S. at $4.22 per gallon this week. That’s a 5 cent decline from last week’s $4.27. 

Some of the cheapest gas prices can be found in the Staunton-Waynesboro area, where gas is averaging $3.79 a gallon. The highest prices can be found in Fairfax, Bath, and Highland county at $4.18 on average.

Diesel prices have made no significant shift since last week. With an average price of $6.24 in Virginia, that’s only a 3-cent decrease from last week’s $6.27 average. Diesel nationally is also down just 3 cents from the previous week. It now sits at $6.33 per gallon on average. 

Prices for Brent crude oil were $113 per barrel at time of writing. While high, this is $5 less than last week when prices peaked on Wednesday, October 28, at $118 per barrel.

Talks that the U.S. and Iran could resume negotiations could spark a sudden decrease in prices, according to Trading Economics. It’s been reported that Vice President J.D. Vance reached out to Iran’s national security official in hopes of peace negotiations. President Trump, however, insists the only purpose of the contact is to get medical supplies to Iran, according to CBS News.
