Get ready for a massive SoCalGas bill this month, as natural gas prices soar

https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2023-01-06/get-ready-for-a-huge-socalgas-bill-this-month-as-natural-gas-prices-soar

The warning Southern California Gas Co. issued to its customers was unusually blunt: “There’s no easy way to put this,” the company said. “January bills are likely to be shockingly high.”

Anyone who heats their home with natural gas is likely to see a January bill that is more than double what they paid a year earlier, SoCalGas said.

A typical peak monthly bill of $65 from last winter will probably come in close to $160, SoCalGas said, a 146% increase. A $130 bill will be more like $315, up 142%.

$320 for a small home with a thermostat I set to 64 when it's on - which is about an hour a day.

Ridiculous and I know that will be lower than a lot of folks but still.

I'm ready to turn the pilot light off on the heater the way it's going.

9. Just got my Jan bill from SoCalGas. Usually in the winter the monthly bill might be a bit over $100.
