The shortage was caused by historic floods last week in Broward County.

And, they are dealing with it.

Following extreme flooding in South Florida brought on by more than 20 inches of rain, state officials are now deploying over 500,000 gallons of fuel to the area to help those impacted, according to the Florida Division of Emergency Management.
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis declared a state of emergency in Broward County last week in response to the “unprecedented flooding,” state officials said.
Due to the flooding, South Florida has suffered from notable gas shortages, though FDEM announced that it plans to bring more into the region.

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Gas stations that still have fuel have been difficult for South Florida drivers to come by in recent days, but officials are promising that relief is on the way.
This is all following several days of historic rainfall and flooding that have impacted residents in Miami-Dade and Broward counties.
Officials at a news conference at Port Everglades Monday morning assured the public that this is “not a supply issue,” but a “distribution issue.”

“We have terminals here that are privately owned from the gas facility folks, so what’s happening is their pumps were inundated with water, and so they are trying to get those pumps back in working order to obviously get the fuel out of their tanks to get to the tankers and get to the gas stations,” Broward County Mayor Lamar Fisher said.

If gas is expensive, given demand, it is because the oil companies are jacking prices.

How much more inflation will Americans be able to tolerate? Food and fuel are skyrocketing. Housing costs are skyrocketing. $7/gallon will be the straw that breaks the camel's back. I remember back during 2007 when gas got really expensive and there were tons and tons of problems with thieves punching holes in people's gas tanks. Brace yourselves for history to rest itself. What plans does Biden have? The federal reserve is asleep at the wheel doing nothing to control inflation and has singaled that they're going to do everything possible to prop the stock market up while regular Americans suffer. Biden ended the pipeline, which will look horrendous if gas hits $7/gallon. It is extremely frustrating watching prices at the grocery store, utilities, and to fill up the car go up and up and up.

This is also a consequence of adopting all of the moronic prescriptions by liberal academic economists who preached globalism like it was a religion and they we'd all be better off outsourcing our manufacturing because of some hocus pocus effects of comparative advantage. Yeah, look how well it stretching supply chains all over the planet has worked out now. Not only is it a massive national security risk they we rely on these stupid supply chains for everything, any disruptions send prices skyrocketing. We should have never gutted our manufscitng base because leadership listened to those fools.

That $7/gal gas we had last year sure was terrible.

Do you mean the same Al Gore whose Tennessee mansion (one of several) that consumed more electricity than a small town and had only 3 people living in it? That Al Gore? Liberal hypocrites.

Do you know how stupid you sound?

Yes, Gore may be a hypocrite. That doesn't mean he was wrong. Those are two different things.

What are you blathering about? You're made about hypocrisy? Noted. And I could point out innumerable instances where that occurs on the other side. On any number of issues. What does that have to do with the substance?

Gore WAS right.

You're referring to the antiquated family hope that he renovated and made LEED Gold.

Your dumb talking point about Al Gore's house has been out of date for close to 15 years.
