Phil Sees Shadow

As attested by our morning "flurries" (now nearly 3 inches of snow) the Groundhog just reinforced what we already realized, Winter is here to stay, at least for the forseeable future.

Brace yourself for more wintry weather. Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow Saturday, leading the groundhog to forecast six more weeks of winter.


The rodent was pulled from his stump by members of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club Inner Circle, top-hat- and tuxedo-wearing businessmen who carry out the tradition. Each Feb. 2, thousands of people descend on Punxsutawney, a town of about 6,100 people some 65 miles northeast of Pittsburgh, to celebrate what had essentially been a German superstition.

May you have a safe and warm weekend as we continue to be hit by Winter, in pretty much every area of the country!!
