April nat-gas prices Tuesday rallied sharply for a second day and posted a 2-year high. Prices were supported by the outlook for cooler temperatures in the western half of the US, which would boost heating demand for nat-gas. Forecaster Maxar Technologies said Monday that below-normal temperatures are expected in the US during March 14-18.
