South Florida's Frustrations Mount: Fuel, Floods, and Fear.

TL;DR Summary
South Florida drivers are facing fuel shortages due to the historic rainfall that flooded Port Everglades, which supplies all the gas, diesel, and jet fuel to the four South Florida counties. Although the issue is not supply, but distribution, the 1,200 trucks that transport fuel from the port daily were halted for close to 36 hours because of the storm. The shortage has led to long lines, bagged pumps, and signs that read "no gas," causing frustration among drivers and spilling into gas stations themselves.
