NWRFC STP Update – Sep 8, 2015
September 8, 2015
Greetings,
The following plot is a summary of the most recent STP forecast as compared to the previous four weeks:
The plot is notable for its lack of notability … the forecast is stable, hallelujah. However, there always must be a however if you wish to keep the reader’s attention, the daily’s tell a tale that actually is notably notable:
Notice the rally (albeit small) in BOM which bodes poorly for the length, but perhaps this is just the acknowledgement that loads will be a bit higher and BPA will draft into those incremental loads – that is what I think. Another notable is the abandonment of the random oscillations in BOM – what were they thinking? Last point to make is the material hair cut in early Nov – we liked the Nov even with the upsurge in water – of course we like it even more post the shave.
The daily data is live on the site, we are working on adding our monthly report. Tomorrow I will publish the price impact of these latest NWRFC shenanigans.
Mike
