Florida gas prices stable despite increased demand due to Hurricane Milton
Oct 15, 2024
Average gasoline prices in Florida remained stable during the past week despite increased demand in the run-up to Hurricane Milton and as hundreds of stations are still without electricity after the storm. Gov. Ron DeSantis said Monday his office will look at a “loophole” in a state law about electric generators at gas stations, though he stopped short of saying the law would be changed. Meanwhile, the AAA auto club said “conditions are improving,” with all but two gas terminals at Florida ports reopened to load tanker trucks.
