After the recent flooding in South Florida, some areas experienced a lack of fuel at gas stations. However, Port Everglades, a seaport in Fort Lauderdale, assured that there was an ample supply of fuel, but the pumping equipment was not operational due to the flooding. To compensate, supplemental supplies were being brought to Tampa and Port Canaveral.
Mayor Lamar Fisher of Broward County updated the residents on Monday and encouraged patience as some gas stations had run out of gas. He said that seven terminals out of twelve were now open and that they were getting about 50 percent of their normal 1,200 trucks of fuel out on a daily basis. He believes that things should return to normal later this week.
This is a positive change as Mayor Fisher is expecting a return to normalcy soon and is working to ensure that the fuel supply is restored.
