The natural gas company had a fire at a compressor station and basically had to burn off an entire natural gas storage field yesterday in a controlled manner in order to prevent an explosion. It was their main field supplying us here in Michigan for the winter. Now they'll have to tap reserves.
They're asking everyone to reduce thermostats to 65F to conserve gas in the meantime.
It's -11F this morning.
Now ain't that a kick in the head.
