An average gallon of gas in Florida reached a nearly two-year low over the weekend, according to the AAA auto club. Florida’s average gallon of gas was at $2.90 on Sunday, which was 2 cents less than a week earlier and the lowest for the state since the pump average of $2.86 on Dec. 18, 2023.
“Robust global oil supplies and the seasonal dip in gasoline demand have helped push pump prices to their lowest level in almost two years,” AAA spokesman Mark Jenkins said in a press release on Monday.
After months of wild fluctuations, the average per-gallon price in Florida also moved at a relatively steady pace over the past week. Across the state averages ranged from $2.68 in Okaloosa County in the Panhandle to $3.09 in Lafayette County in the Big Bend region. Monroe County, which includes the Florida Keys, was at $3.07, while Orange County was at $2.92 and Duval County prices were at the statewide average. Nationally, the average of $3.04 on Sunday was down from $3.08 a week earlier and continued to meet an anticipated slow autumn decline.
In addition to a decline in the U.S. price of crude oil, overall demand is down as gas providers make the switch to winter-blend gasoline which is cheaper to produce.

I wish liberals would recognize that Biden’s high gas prices were manufactured on purpose to justify The Green New Deal.
I remeber $1.49 a gallon in Atlanta during Trump’s 1st term. 🙁 Thanks for everything, Unka Joe.
