Hi to all,
On the off-chance that I would end up with a late publishing
of numbers from my source, I didn’t send out a release late last night for the
Friday price change. I did subsequently get that last day of data this morning,
so, here’s what I have for tomorrow’s price changes:
Keep in mind that my numbers here don’t include the
allowances for the winter heating blend. They should be on track for that
blending next week I hope.
·
Heating and stove oils add 1.22 cents a litre.
·
Diesel also adds an even 1.2 cents a litre, and…
·
Gasoline adds 1.6 cents a litre.
What a way to start off the New Year…
Demand for these fuels remains up with colder weather and
Christmas travel. While we can’t expect anything downwards in the heating front
over the next while, there may be some slight relief for gasoline as futures
markets show gasoline trading somewhat lower. That, of course, is still
sometime out as futures markets normally show activity a rough thrity days out.
As well a cautionary note here for heating oil consumers…
Be careful around your oil tanks and lines and make sure
you keep them clear from the weight of snow! While I haven’t heard of any spill
incidents this year so far, there have been in the past! It’s best that you
keep your oil tanks free of any snow and ice that may snap lines and cause
major damage to your property, as well as to others! Watch for any falling ice
as well from the eaves of buildings and houses that can drop and cause major
damage!
That’s it for this week!
Happy New Year to everyone!
