Florida Gas Prices Surge 21 Cents to 4-Month High as Crude Oil Costs Climb

AAA said Florida drivers are paying about 15 cents more than a week ago as crude oil climbs above $100 a barrel.

  • Florida gas prices fell slightly to $4.28 on Monday after hitting a four-month high of $4.33 over the weekend, according to the American Automobile Association.
  • AAA spokesman Mark Jenkins said rising oil prices contributed to the jump at the pump as ongoing tensions in the Middle East created uncertainty about global oil supplies.
  • It now costs an average of about $65 for Florida drivers to fill a 15-gallon gas tank, representing a $6 increase from a month ago and nearly $20 more than a year ago.
  • West Palm Beach and Boca Raton remain the most expensive markets at $4.43 a gallon, while Panama City offers the lowest at $4.03; Florida's average stays below the national $4.47.
  • Oil prices climbed 27 percent over the past three weeks, with crude settling at $105.83 per barrel Tuesday. Relief timing remains unclear as prices stay tied to Middle East tensions.
