(Data updated from the most recent U.S. Census report.) Natural gas is also used to produce goods and electricity. (Please note natural gas data (with the exception of working gas in storage which is up to date) will be updated the week of January 15, 2017 following the release of EIA’s Natural Gas Weekly Update on January 12, 2017) On January 4, 2017, natural gas futures on the NYMEX closed at $3.27 per million British thermal units (MMBtu), up $1.00, or 44 percent, in the past year.

Working natural gas stocks total 3,597 Bcf, which is 78 Bcf above the five-year average and 226 Bcf below last year at this time. This week's storage withdrawal represents the largest December net withdrawal in the Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report (WNGSR) history, which dates back to late 1994. The substantial storage draw is related to a combination of cold weather, increased electric-sector capacity for natural gas, reduced natural gas production relative to last year, and increased natural gas export volumes.  Average temperatures in the Lower 48 states fell 6°F on the week and averaged 34°F. Temperatures in most regions were below the seasonal norms for the period. Falling temperatures this week pushed temperatures 3°F below the normal level for this time of year and 16°F lower than last year at this time. HDD in the Lower 48 states totaled 217, compared with 110 last year and a normal of 195.  According to the EIA, U.S. consumption of natural gas rose by 11 percent compared with the previous report week.

Natural gas exports to Mexico increased 9 percent. 4 Propane Approximately 10 percent (227,100) of Missouri households use propane to heat their homes.
