In our area of Florida, there was a shortage of mid-grade and premium.
You probably know this, but I'll post it for information.
Mid grade gasoline is a 50-50 blend of regular and high test, not a grade in its own, separate, underground tank at the station. If either ingredient is in short supply, then mid will be in short supply. A premium shortage == a mid grade shortage.

That doesn’t explain the shortage.

Which would allow a less than scrupulous station owner to just bag the regular and high test nozzles on all pumps and sell only midgrade (actually regular)?
