According to Stormfax.com, Punxsutawney Phil has only been correct approximately 39% of the time.

So given that random guessing should produce a 50% success rate, can we say that Punxsutawney Phil is misleading?

Perhaps. But he’s kinda cute. And personally, isn’t he as accurate as the talking head weatherman on the nightly news? They never seem to get the weather correct where I live.

It’s all in fun anyway.
