Natural Gas Price Today (Dec. 17, 2025): Henry Hub Holds Near $4 as Europe’s TTF Rises on Colder Forecasts and LNG Outage Risks

December 17, 2025 — Natural gas prices are sending mixed signals on Wednesday as the U.S. market wrestles with mild-weather demand concerns while Europe leans bullish on a colder, less windy outlook and tighter storage.

Across the Atlantic, the Dutch TTF benchmark is rising again, supported by late-December cold risk and an outage at a major U.S. LNG export facility that could ripple into global supply.
