There’s no easy way to put this: January bills are likely to be shockingly high. An unprecedented cold snap across the nation in part has caused natural gas market prices in the West to more than double between December and January – to the tune of 128% since December.
Customers can expect to see changes in their natural gas bills this winter due to the rise in natural gas prices. If your residential peak winter bill was around $65 last winter, you can expect to see bills closer to $160 this year. Similarly, if it was around $130 last winter, customers can expect to see bills around $315 this year. These increases are primarily due to increases in the price of gas and to a much lesser extent increased transportation rates. Our rates for the transportation of natural gas are set by the California Public Utilities Commission, which reviews those rates yearly.

A blessed Sabbath, Gerbil Nation!
I hope you are all doing well!
I see Mac is trying to palm off a pun on this Sunday morning. That’s a tough nut to crack. At least his pun doesn’t come across as dated.
I’m off to church, until I return, I bid you a frond farewell.
Puns. And on a Sunday.
We had communion this Sunday, so at least someone forgives me.
That was “Sunday”?? Sorry, I read “Punday”!
Interesting to see this Raider takedown on Red State of all places, but no argument from me. #2 is especially embarrassing.

Looking at a our natural gas bill (SoCal Gas) and it’s 3X what it was last year for the same period. Good thing we are both still working.
Ours haven’t gone up very much at all, but we did just get a brand spankin’ new commie governor, so who knows what 2023 will bring.
SoCal Gas has been saying it’s due to:

I hope it improves your drainage, Sven.
I used to know a dude who looked almost exactly like today’s thread pic.
That is all.
