Does weather cause Natural Gas prices to run-up?
Sure it does,
If you look at the chart history you can see a distinct pattern in more violent hurricane seasons compared to less violent hurricane seasons. Price run-ups were much more favorable with more violent hurricanes seasons.

Is it true that natural gas prices went into the negative in the UK?
I’m getting crushed by one of the natural gas ETF’s right now, wondering if this latest supply increase is enough to drive the price to 0 and beyond?
here’s the quote I’m talking about:
As a result, natural gas storage facilities are close to overflowing. As Monday’s Financial Times reports, that creates a risk that spot prices will fall even further. Indeed “a 2006 gas glut in the UK briefly pushed wholesale prices there below zero.”

The price will never go to zero. At some point production will be cut and wells shut in. Its a boom and bust business. They always overshoot on both sides because it takes time to get the machinery moving and to slow them down. Its like a freight train. You cant stop it on a dime. And nobody knows exactly where to stop in this business until its too late. Or when to start again. There’s a shortage and everyone starts drilling and pumping, then there is a surplus. There is never a happy medium.
Does anyone know the average natural gas price in north carolina?
Moving into a bigger house, but we will heat, cook, hot water heater by natural gas. I was just curious what the price is per gallon or however they measure it.
Make a phone call and ask your local gas supplier because they like this question and have accurate answers for you. Tell them what your house looks like (they will know what to ask of you) and they will be able to estimate your annual gas cost as they have millions of House/Years history to estimate accurately from. It is like knowing that automobile gasoline is $2.98 a gallon but not know if you are driving a caddilac or a VW Bug. You will not know much with only a quantity cost. You need to have them estimate how many BTU (British Thermal Units) of energy you will use and from that they estimate cost for water, furnace, cooking, etc. Good luck!

How Much Have Consumer Prices for Electricity & Natural Gas Gone Up Compared to the Price of Oil Over…?
… the past handful of years?
Have consumer prices for electricity and natural gas gone up roughly the same percent as the price of oil (or fuel oil) over the past handful of years? Or, are people who heat with natural gas and electricity not seeing nearly as large of a jump in the prices they pay compared to people who heat with fuel oil?
Using data from http://www.bls.gov/cpi/home.htm#data (click on average price data)
THe annual (January to January) price changes across the US for the last 10 years are:
Electricity:
-6% -3% 0% 5% 1% 0% 3% 3% 13% 3%
Natural gas:
-4% -2% 3% 57% -27% 11% 14% 11% 30% -16%
Heating oil:
-15% -14% 43% 27% -26% 24% 8% 23% 30% -2%
Peter Beutel Talks About Slipping Natural Gas Prices
Clean Skies News talks with Peter Beutel, President of Cameron Hanover Inc. about what the falling natural gas prices could mean. Beutel says the drop makes no sense because speculators are selling short on natural gas pushing prices lower. Beutel also calls the situation a weird hedge.

all the Oil CEO’s did admitted to Congress last month that
-It cost $10 to make a barrel of Oil but trade on Wall Street for $130 a barrel
-Oil refineries are only operating at a 60-80% capacity because demands are low and supplies are high
The problem is at Wall Street
Fix it there
Do natural gas prices lie?
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Natural-gas-surges-on-record-apf-2278066234.html?x=0&sec=topStories&pos=4&asset=&ccode=
natural gas prices are up because supply is down. Supply declines at this time of year because the fuel is used as a heating fuel.
Supply is still higher than the 5-year average – because it was so high in Fall, causing prices to then be quite low. Supply during the Fall is a function of how hot the Summer was – because natural gas is used to generate peak power (i.e., when air conditioning demand is high).
Natural gas production is very stable on a per-day basis. Thus changes in supply reflect the amount used for variable purposes – for Summer air conditioning and Winter heating.
Natural gas price and supply data is telling us that it was a cool Summer and it has been a cold Winter thus far.
And that’s consistent with what people are actually experiencing.
Should we believe that? Or UEA’s data?
Hi Peter – well other than supply disruptions (e.g., hurricanes and other reasons pipelines or refineries might be shut down) supply is pretty steady while demand shifts because of hot vs mild Summer and cold vs mild Winter. There are other demand factors but these actually are offsetting – demand for natural gas and its byproducts as a chemical feedstock declines when prices spike – chemical firms switch to other, cheaper, feedstocks. That’s more of an issue with propane but it’s an issue with natural gas.
Bubba your interpretation and understanding are pretty far off – oil is not a generating fuel in the US.
Sanford the middle east has nothing to do with natural gas – 90% of our natural gas is domestic, with 9% coming from Canada.
dearest beren i don’t think that there has been an increase in occupied mcmansions this year.
that housing bubble burst ya know
It’s better than tree-rings.
There are many factors effecting the long-term price of the fuel, and long term they’ll probably be relatively steady. We’ll be using more, but production methods are improving, and reserves are increasing.
