Weather Update!
November 20th, 2008 by Chris Chase
I figured I would notify all of weather updates as we receive them. Being in the Heating Oil business, we get special updates from time to time.
Not to scare anyone, but this source is usually spot on! After this sentence, all content is from meteorologist John Bagioni.
SPECIAL PATTERN ALERT FOR THE NORTHERN MIDDLE ATLANTIC, NEW YORK AND NEW ENGLAND REGIONS

UNUSUALLY COLD EARLY DECEMBER GAINING MORE SUPPORT…
RECORD COLD AND HIGH ENERGY DEMAND A GROWING CONCERN!!!
PATTERN TREND UPDATE
While I will be expanding on the threat for a very cold early and mid December in my normal Friday update, I felt the need to get a brief pattern alert update out today due to the potential for an unusually cold early December period.
I have been onboard with a cold December for a long time now, but have been thinking that the truly cold, possibly record setting cold, would wait until after the first week of the month.
Current trends, both hemispherical and model-wise, are now pointing toward an earlier intrusion of some very serious cold into the central and eastern U.S. very early in December.
I am not going to get overly specific right now, but this could equal some of the bitter outbreaks of December 1989 and could be record setting if the pattern amplifies to the extent of some of the modeling. Even if the modeling is overdone, the cold period that would evolve in early December would be very significant and would lead to a very impressive enhancement of heating demand across all of the Northeast & New England regions.

BioHeat® is Back!
November 11th, 2008 by Chris Chase
We are again delivering BioHeat to our customers that request it! The blend we are currently offering is a 5% blend. The cost is averaging about a dime more a gallon than our regular #2. (at today’s prices at least) We deliver BioFuel on an automatic delivery basis.
For those unfamiliar with BioHeat, please refer to the National BioDiesel Board link below.
http://www.biodiesel.org/markets/hom/faqs.asp
The State of Massachusetts recently passed legislation that all home heating oil must have at least a 2% bio blend by 2010. We are proud to be able to offer this product earlier than mandated. Feel free to email me personally with any questions you might have. If you wish to change your deliveries to Bio, just give one of our customer service representatives a call.
Thanks

Don’t Forget To Vote
November 4th, 2008 by Chris Chase
Today’s post has nothing to do with the oil industry… But just a reminder to go out and vote! Exercise your constitutional right to vote. In too many places on this planet, people don’t have the right to choose how their government operates. WE DO have that right. However that right is useless is people don’t go out and actually vote!
