So, how valuable was this morning's:
...Yes, the report will be a day early and Platts' survey has a drawdown in the 23-27 Bcf range. That's probably high...
Well the report came in at "a net decline of 18 Bcf" and the front futures are:
completely unchanged.
Great.*
We posted last weeks numbers and then gloated.
Not too impressive.
The futures are up a nickle at $3.882 after getting as high as $3.91, a new 2012 record.

Notes and Definitions
Reclassifications of data
from working to base gas resulted in reducing estimates of working gas
stocks in the Producing Region nonsalt facilities by approximately 7
billion cubic feet for the week ending November 16, 2012. These
reclassifications had the effect of increasing the implied net
withdrawal to 38 Bcf from 31 Bcf for the total Lower 48.
The Energy Information
Administration (EIA) is changing the Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report
(WNGSR) web products. The implementation of these changes will be
preceded by a public testing period, commencing on November 27, 2012.
An example of the new webpage and more information about the public
testing period, including specific times, can be found at: http://ir.eia.gov/ngs/notice.html.
Summary
Working gas in storage was 3,873 Bcf as of Friday, November 16, 2012,
