Natural Gas futures recovered from 14-week lows. 1/15/26

February Natural Gas futures tested a 14-week low of 3.006 before bouncing to finish the session near unchanged. Despite the intraday recovery, the market tracked toward its third consecutive weekly decline. The EIA reported a net storage withdrawal of 71 billion cubic feet, leaving total working gas at 3,185 billion cubic feet—still above the five-year average. Weather forecasts signaled a shift in demand drivers, with cold air expected to advance across the Midwest and East. A second, stronger cold shot is projected to reach the South and Southeast, potentially pushing heating demand from moderate to high levels in the coming days.
