Halstead City Manager Ethan Reimer says people should be prepared for higher natural gas prices this winter than what they’ve normally seen the past few years. “To be clear, I’m not talking about pricing approaching the levels like they did in February, but normal base prices are almost twice as high and trending higher than what we’ve seen as long as I’ve been with the city,” he said during Monday night’s city council meeting. The most recent prices he’d seen from KMGA were $3.88 per MMBtu, compared to $1.97 per MMBtu a year ago at this time. For context, when prices skyrocketed last February, they peaked at $622 per unit.
