GasBuddy Predicts No Hurricane-Related Increase in Gas Prices

GasBuddy

Gas prices are not expected to increase because of Hurricane Florence. According to analysts at GasBuddy, the storm is not expected to result in widespread gas price hikes.

GasBuddy has expanded its fuel availability tracker for drivers in Georgia, joining North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia motorists looking for fuel ahead of Hurricane Florence’s arrival, which has prompted millions of people to evacuate.

The app provides real-time prices at more than 150,000 gas stations in the U.S. Canada and Australia. For more information, visit www.gasbuddy.com.
