Gasoline is made from crude oil, so oil prices lead pump prices by a few weeks. Prices are in dollars per barrel (42 gallons). Traders call the U.S. price WTI and the world price Brent.

Tax accounts for 15% of the pump price here — 58.5¢ a gallon, state and federal combined. Even that understates it: county-level local option taxes, which vary across the state sit outside these figures and land in the “everything else” row, so treat that row as an upper bound on margin rather than a measure of it. See our methodology for how each row is derived.
Florida has no oil refineries at all — every gallon burned in the state arrives by ship.
Fuel arrives by ship and barge at Port Everglades, Port Tampa Bay, Jacksonville and Port Canaveral, then moves inland mostly by truck, with a pipeline running from Tampa into central Florida. More than 40% of the state’s petroleum products come through Port Tampa Bay and neighbouring SeaPort Manatee alone. This makes Florida unusually exposed to port disruption: when a hurricane closes the ports, the state has only days of resupply flexibility.
Zero operating refineries. Florida is entirely dependent on Gulf Coast production and imports.
Conventional gasoline with ethanol is standard statewide; Florida does not impose a state-specific reformulated blend requirement.
Hurricane track forecasts and port closure notices. Pre-storm panic buying reliably empties stations before the supply disruption itself arrives.
Across the line in Alabama, state tax is 9.1¢ a gallon lower, which is $1.37 less tax on a 15-gallon fill.
