This explains it ....we started with a propane deficit and prices will “necessarily” have to rise.

Propane shortage adds to winter woes

However, the energy shortage is not just a result of families and business owners trying to keep buildings comfortable during the persistent cold spells. The Midwest started the winter with a propane deficit since a greater than usual amount of propane was used in November to dry corn crops during a rain-soaked harvest, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA).

“Propane prices in the Midwest will likely need to rise to keep propane in the region,” according to the EIA.

In the middle of January, average propane prices across the nation were 58 cents per gallon higher than the same period last year, EIA reported.
