Thurs has a chance as well, but looks to be the start of warming as winds turn to the SW. Nice cold shot to get us in the mood. First fire in the woodstove last night. It was nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best panel for maximum effect...aka....cherrypickin. Wind is already outta the SW, so IMO its almost looking like a CAD presentation as the mtns may lock in the cold SE of them for a bit prior to the scouring to commence. Just me thinkng aloud...

I have a mix of electricity and heating oil and the oil is going to be a big price jump for me. $500-$1000 more than last year depending on conditions. Natural Gas is not available in my rural setting. My oil won't cause as much as this estimation but still going to be in mid 1000's. Use about 200-225 gallons a typical winter. https://www.eia.gov/outlooks/steo/report/WinterFuels.php 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pasnownut Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I REALLY feel for those who heat w/ oil, or baseboard heat, and are/were not able/cannot afford to transition to alternative methods (notice i didnt say cheaper). IMO efficiency is gonna be key. Hoping my new windows help w/ that. Quite an investment, but was needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how often coal heaters need to refill their coal so hard to gauge there. I know some people who had $400/MO electric bills for 4 months last winter...those could be over $500 a month this year with the same usage.

I work in this field and yeah, I don't think a lot of people have any idea what's about to hit them this winter. Might as well take a flamethrower to their wallets. Going to be absolutely brutal, no matter the heating source. I really feel for some folks. The energy markets are just so out of whack, like so many other markets. A mess indeed. I saw you mentioned about the trace in Coudersport and sure enough it looks like the Commonwealth received its first official snowfall of the season, with some places in Erie County getting around an inch. We're off and running. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that is not too bad. ~$1000 based on your cost mentioned this AM. As other have said, even a normal winter is going to knock $1000-$2000 extra out of some people's budget with oil or electric.

Bubbler86 Posted October 18, 2022 Author Share Posted October 18, 2022 18Z GFS with only 4-5 days in the 70's for the LSV during the coming "heat wave".
