Traditional abbreviations were (Fla.) or less commonly (Flor.) on letters.

The modern USPS postal abbreviation for the state is FL(two letters, no period).

Style guides say the traditional abbreviation (Fla.) is the correct abbreviation to use in text. When the name of a state stands alone in a sentence, spell it out. When the name of a city and state are used together, the name of the state should be abbreviated (e.g. Holly came from Miami, Fla.) which can cause mis-punctuation if it ends a sentence.

FL is the US Postal Service abbreviation for Florida. It is used for addressing letters and postcards as well as in computer databases using a two-letter code system for US states. Postal abbreviations are now becoming the standard for web-based text as well.
