HURRICANE MICHAEL LIKELY TO IMPACT OKLAHOMA TRAVELERS
October 10, 2018 - - As Hurricane Michael makes landfall along the Florida panhandle and on into Georgia and the Carolinas, AAA advises Oklahomans with plans to travel through the region to check before leaving, keep an eye on weather conditions and put safety first. AAA urges travelers to check with their travel agents and travel providers for cancelation policies and itinerary changes.“Many Oklahomans flying for Fall Break and business have connections through the Atlanta airport that will likely be impacted,” said Leslie Gamble, AAA Oklahoma spokesperson.Motorists could also notice a temporary spike in gas prices should Hurricane Michael disrupt oil production and refining in the Gulf of Mexico. AAA Hurricane Preparedness Tips Travel Considerations:
Gas Prices: Gas supplies are likely to tighten in the Gulf Coast portion of Florida panhandle and surrounding areas impacted by the hurricane.The severity of the storm will determine access to fuel supply and impact on gas prices in Florida and Georgia.
