yeah seems about the same here.

there was some talk of a oil reserve release among G7 economic ministers / leaders, but it's not clear how serious or immediate that is.

these are futures contracts - so the thought is that if the Strait of Hormuz remains the way it is, the supply of oil generally will be drastically affected. Even some of the later contracts (late 2026) are getting close to $100/bbl, suggesting that investors think this will not be something acute.

i mean particular commodities exchanges might have them (CME, etc) - but I don't think there is one on the commodity future itself.

crude oil just hit $118/bbl - hope folks have bikes / scooters / EVs or their Smartrip card ready for this summer lol

DCA high of 76F so far, without much sun.

March 2012 was one of the more insane months I can remember. I was in Chicago for work and it was like mid June (mid 80s in the day, mid 60s at night).

mid 70s - nice.

it's 62F here in DC - pretty sharp differences over a small area.

incredible pictures!!! low 60s here, beautiful night!

pretty heavy now tbh

mod/heavy snow back here

big ol' flakes right now

light snow in upper NW DC

i saw some national maps - and that seems about right for most of the Mid Atlantic.
