February is the coldest month so presumably the peak month for fuel oil.
Oil heat is very common in my area, I've never had anything else. Our house is
heated with oil as is my parent's the in-laws, my grandparents and Angie's and
even the "new" farmhouse.
Natural gas isn't an option for us or my parents. I suspect it is for Angie's
folks and grandparents, they live in a larger town than us.

The market is probably speculating that with vaccines starting to roll
out that travel (and fuel use) will be starting to pick up again.
Also January would be peak season for use of heating oil? Not sure
whether enough people still heat with oil for that to be a big
factor. Last time I talked with my furnace guy, he said there's like two
people in my area that know anything about oil furnances, but oil was
never big in this area. Around here, the oldest homes originally used
coal, and they all moved to natural gas.
