Kentuckians who heat their homes with natural gas will see lower prices this heating season than they did last winter.
The Public Service Commission reports natural gas prices are down more than a third from this time a year ago. PSC Spokesman Andrew Melnykovych says supply has kept pace demand.
"There's been a lot of development of new domestic natural gas sources in the United States, so we're in a situation now where there's actually an over-supply of gas in many parts of the country," Melnykovych told WKU Public Radio.
On average, consumers can expect their gas bill to be about 20 percent smaller this month compared to last November.
Kentuckians may also get a financial break from the weather. The long-term outlook for this winter is for temperatures to be normal or a bit warmer than usual.
