Gas Price In Florida Is Contionusly Rising
Gas price in Florida has increased by 8 cents per gallon last week, reaching an average price of $3.69. This rise in gas price in Florida is due to the tightening of global fuel supplies, which is driving up oil prices.
OPEC’s oil production cuts caused the price of oil in the US to close at $90.77 per barrel on Friday, the highest so far this year, which also caused the rise in gas price in Florida. Despite the increase in gas price, the average price in Florida is still 16 cents lower than the highest price of $3.85 per gallon seen this year.
Floridians are currently spending an average of $55 to fill up their gas tanks. According to a published article by Tallhassee, the rise in gas price in Florida will be a big problem to the people.
Last Week’s Rise In Gas Price In Florida
In a published article by Energy Portal, gas price in Florida made an increase last week. Despite the rise, Floridians are still paying less than earlier this year, with the current average being 16 cents below the highest recorded.
It’s important to note that gas prices may vary daily. Due to global fuel supply constraints and OPEC’s production cuts, Florida residents should expect to pay more at the pump this week.
