ORLANDO, Fla. – Gas prices are continuing to fall amid lower demand during the coronavirus pandemic. According to a new report released by AAA, Florida gas prices fell another 6 cents per gallon in the past week.
The average price for a gallon of gas in the state is $1.85, slightly lower than the current national average of $1.87 a gallon.
Experts say gas prices in Florida have dropped 56% since February 21. AAA says prices could go even lower in the coming weeks after a historic deal reached over the weekend by OPEC and its allies that will cut oil production by 9.7 million barrels per day.
