Hurricane Milton is threatening the state of Florida. As residents evacuate and business shut down, many are preparing for what could be the Sunshine State’s worst storm in decades. But preparations haven’t been easy. As people try to drive upstate or to another location, some can’t find gas stations with enough fuel. Orlando residents are struggling to find an open gas station to fill up their cars.
