Massachusetts households that use heating oil are facing record fuel prices as the winter heating season gets underway, according to a Nov. 2 report from WBUR.
The report describes the prospect of steep winter bills for many residents. The price pressure comes as households head into the season when they depend on fuel to warm their homes.
WBUR also published a separate Massachusetts heating oil price tracker focused on per-gallon costs. Neither the supplied summary of that tracker nor the accompanying report summary provides a dollar figure for the record price or an estimate of a household’s total winter bill.
The available summaries do not specify how prices compare with last winter or how many Massachusetts households face the higher costs.
