Looks like the NOAA updated their winter outlook yesterday to show colder temps across the northern US, which could be a factor.
It looks like the short-term weather forecasts are finally catching up to earlier expectations, with some significant cold fronts projected. This could be giving natural gas a boost as demand for heating fuel rises.
Natural gas has been quite volatile lately, and this move feels like a response to the latest storage report or perhaps some updated weather forecasts. I'm wondering if this is a sustainable push or just another short-term swing.
