TALLAHASSEE — Average gasoline prices in Florida remained stable during the past week despite increased demand in the run-up to Hurricane Milton and as hundreds of stations are still without electricity after the storm.

TALLAHASSEE – As potentially catastrophic Hurricane Milton headed toward the state Wednesday morning, evacuees faced gas stations that were out of fuel and utility companies warned of lengthy post-storm power outages. Milton, which was a Category 4 storm with maximum sustained winds of 145 mph as of 11 a.m., is forecast to make landfall early Thursday morning on Florida’s Gulf Coast and continue to pack hurricane-force winds as it crosses the state. kAmv@G] #@?
