Gas prices are dropping below $2 per gallon in some areas of Florida, including Tampa Bay.
There's two reasons for that, according to AAA spokesman Mark Jenkins.
"Saudi Arabia is really filling the market with crude oil. It's causing an oversupply of fuel at a time when the coronavirus is causing less demand for fuel. People are staying home; they're not driving as much there's less demand for gasoline," he said.
This trend is happening in Florida, the U.S. and globally, said Jenkins.
The average price of gas in Florida is at $2.14 a gallon.
