Climate forecasts show Europeans are in store for another milder-than-usual winter, potentially helping to relieve demand for natural gas.

The Copernicus Climate Change Service sees a probability of at least 60% that northern Europe and the Mediterranean will experience above-average temperatures between December and February. The rest of the continent has 40% to 50% odds of exceeding median historical temperatures measured over the past three decades.
