@GoGriddy why has each months average price been higher than the last?? You’d think November would be lower than September!
Hi Martin! We understand your confusion. A couple of things have happened, less wind gerneration and colder weather than the grid expected as well as nuclear power plants being down when they were scheduled to run.

I don’t have electric heat. Care to give a less generic answer? I also live in Houston where we have no lack of wind problem

Unfortunately, there isn't a lot of wind generation in the Houston area. Most of it is up in the panhandle and in west Texas, and wind output there has been generally disappointing lately.

Oct. and Nov. are supposed to be the low demand months, so that's when plants schedule their maintenance. When the weather is unseasonably warm like it was in Oct. and the first part of Nov., a lot of plants that would normally be there to pick up the slack aren't available.
