Florida - Monday December 4, 2023: Florida gas prices are declining again after an abrupt increase last week. After setting a new 2023 low of $3.01 per gallon last Monday, the state average jumped to $3.17 by Thursday.
"Florida gas prices seem to be moving down again almost as quickly as they shot up," said Mark Jenkins, spokesman, AAA - The Auto Club Group. "There isn't any clear explanation for last week's sudden increase, as oil and gasoline futures logged their sixth consecutive weekly loss. Regardless, drivers in many cities are beginning to find gas prices close to the same levels where they were last week.
