Cold weather blasts gas bills in Lorain County
Homes in Lorain County face sharply higher gas costs as Columbia Gas reports November bills could double from last year and triple for some. Managers warn the steep rise stems from unusually cold weather over the past weeks and higher residential demand, with budget-plan customers seeing readjustment options in early 1977. Industrial usage may face 10 percent cuts in the first quarter of 1977 as supply prioritizes homes and heating needs.
