Henry Hub futures rose above $4 per MMBtu as early winter cold and lean storage supported prices. The December contract settled 31.3 cents higher at $4.101, with stronger gains further along the winter strip.
Traders described the rally as driven by fear of low storage more than by a single clear catalyst.
Higher winter strip prices point to sustained upward pressure on natural gas costs for feed and grain processors. Weather model shifts could reverse some of the gains, so volatility is likely.
