December 3, 2025–Written by Daniel Graeber for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)–With much of the U.S. Midwest still digging out from heavy weekend snows, data from IIR Energy show regional consumer and residential demand for natural gas for heating jumped 15% over the last two days.
A parade of systems similar to an Alberta Clipper brought cold air and heavy snow to parts of the Midwest during the weekend. Parts of the greater Chicago metropolitan area received as much as 10 inches of snow, and O’Hare International Airport set a record for single-day snowfall in November, according to the National Weather Service.
