It looks like Charlotte County homeowners who use natural gas can expect lower heating bills this winter. The price of the fuel has fallen to a seven-year low -- just under three dollars U-S per thousand cubic feet.

Hurricane Bill
Updated Aug21/09
The Canadian Hurricane Centre in Nova Scotia says hurricane Bill could be a Category 2 hurricane when it sweeps south of Nova Scotia on Sunday night. That means it will be packing winds in excess of 152 kilometres per hour offshore. The centre's supervisor, Peter Bowyer, says it will be tough to determine where the storm is headed as it transforms into a post-tropical storm. TAG: Bowyer says the storm will bring up to 100 millimetres of rain to some areas. Much of Nova Scotia can expect hurricane-force winds at 120 kilometres per hour. The storm's projected track currently takes Bill's eye within 150 kilometres south of Halifax and over the southern edge of Cape Breton before moving on to Newfoundland early Monday.
