Fuel frenzy continues to cause gas shortages across Florida May 13, 2021 at 5:41 PM EDT - Updated May 13 at 5:41 PM The Colonial Pipeline has restored the flow of fuel following a ransomware cyberattack, though President Joe Biden said it could still be several days before drivers notice supply normalizes at gas stations. “This is not like flipping on a light switch. This is 5,500 miles long,” President Biden said in an update Thursday. Drivers are still dashing to gas stations to fill up their tanks, leading to shortages across the state. According to crowdsourced data from Gas Buddy, 30% of gas stations in Florida are without gas, 38% of stations in the West Palm Beach area, and 39% of gas stations in the Fort Lauderdale/Miami area.
