Dow Jones06-04 21:10

0910 ET - U.S. natural gas futures gain in early trading with warmer weather forecasts lifting demand expectations for coming weeks. "The first test could come tomorrow and into the weekend where the northeast will see the mercury climb through 90 again," Tradition Energy's Gary Cunningham says in a note. The coming heat is expected to add to power-sector gas demand "and firm up the fundamentals for the remainder of summer," he adds. Storage data for last week due at 10:30 a.m. ET are expected to show an injection of 105 Bcf, slightly larger than the five-year average, according to a WSJ survey of analysts. Nymex natural gas is up 1.8% at $3.273/mmBtu. (anthony.harrup@wsj.com)
