Price of Propane Plummets

      For all Tahoma residents and the population in general that uses propane for heating, etc., the retail price of a gallon of propane hit $0.76 yesterday on the open market.  This fall in winter pricing is, to say the least, unusual in early February.  Normally, seasonal highs would be about now, but weather forecasters predict a continued warming trend for the month, even as the days get longer.
     Most of the precipitation and cold weather has been thwarted by a dominating high pressure zone over the western states of Nevada, Utah, and California.  The rain and snow has been falling on Washington state and Oregon, and Idaho, Montana.  Oh, well.  We know Mother Nature is fickle.
     So, if you need some propane, go for it.  Prices have dropped from $0.99 to $0.76, almost a 25% drop.  Spend some of that savings on yourself.  You deserve a tax cut and this could be it.
