Hurricane Milton<\/strong> is causing a gasoline supply crisis in Florida, with nearly 25% of gas stations out of<\/strong> stock. The hardest hit areas include Tampa\/St. Petersburg and Sarasota, where more than 60% of gas stations<\/a><\/strong> are out of stock. According to GasBuddy, demand has risen dramatically due to the evacuations, affecting residents and tourists alike. <\/p>\n\n

Gas stations in Florida hit hardest by hurricane<\/h2>\n\n

The Tampa\/St. Petersburg area is the hardest hit, with a staggering 62.3% of its stations out of fuel<\/strong> as of 2:43 p.m. m. ET on Oct. 9. This increase reflects intense evacuation activity as many seek to escape the hurricane’s impending path. <\/p>\n\n

Meanwhile, regions such as Fort Myers and Gainesville also show significant increases in gasoline<\/a><\/strong> shortages, with 36.63% and 35.29% respectively. The high demand for fuel is related to the urgent need to prepare for the arrival of the storm. <\/p>\n\n

Similarly, areas such as Miami and Pensacola are experiencing fewer difficulties, with less than 2% shortages at service stations<\/strong> . However, the situation remains critical, with reports indicating that the fuel shortage could continue in the coming hours. <\/p>\n\n
