Natural Gas Users to Take Hit This Winter
WASHINGTON (AP) --
Winter heating bills will be a third to a half higher for most
families across the country, with the sharpest increases expected for
those who heat with natural gas, the Energy Department forecast
Wednesday.
The department said natural gas users can expect to pay an average of
$350 more during the upcoming winter compared to last year, an
increase of 48 percent.
Those who heat their homes with fuel oil will pay $378 more, or 32
percent higher than last winter.
