#1 Why would they do that? Resident poster here says German reserves 100% full.

#2 Which they are (99.3% yesterday). The plan was 95% on Nov 1st. So our reserves will last well into February, but of course we'll continue to buy (and get) gas in winter.

Russian propaganda loved to show freezing Germans in October when day temperatures were in the upper 70s. November is still benign (upper 40s), with no frosts yet (Alps excepted).

Forecast for the next two weeks: Lower 40s or upper 30s. I'm not worried about power outages.

#3 I hope you are correct EC.
Strange you trust your media.
You didn't address why they would buy generators.....
