Florida Gas Prices Sink To Lowest In Nearly A Month
MIAMI (CBSMiami) -- Florida drivers are getting a pre-Halloween treat as the price of gas continues to fall. Currently, prices at the pumps have sunk to their lowest level in nearly a month.
"Sub-$2 gas prices are beginning to pop up in various Florida cities," said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA - The Auto Club Group. "Pump prices are drifting lower as COVID concerns creep back into the fuel market. Gasoline demand is already 15% lower than this time last year. Meanwhile, fuel supplies remain strong. It's possible the state average could dip below $2 a gallon in the coming weeks. If that happens, it would be the first time since June."
Florida's state average sits at $2.08 per gallon. That's 4.5 cents less than a week ago and 33 cents per gallon less than this time last year. The state average has declined the past 22 consecutive days, for total discount of 11 cents.
