Phil predicts six more weeks of winter!!!!

[Rebelbase]

That’s pretty good for a quadruped.

[Gefn]

General Lee predicts. An early Spring.

[muir_redwoods]

Since there are 46 days remaining officially, this is good news delivered by a brainless rat that simply wants to be left alone. This is one of the oddest customs in the country.

[Overtaxed]

So groundhogs are regional prognosticators.

[Gefn]

I know. But it’s kind of fun. It’s Sunday morning, I was lonely and it was nice to chat with you all before the Super Bowl and Puppy Bowl.

I hope everyone has a great day, regardless whether we have an early or late Spring.

I live 30 miles away. THAT’S the reason I have never - and WILL NEVER - go there on February 2nd.

[Salamander]

I can’t imagine being in the midst of all that madness, either.

[Salamander]

It’s an altered version of something *much* older

Noooooooooooo! Its supposed to drop into the low 60"s next week and there's a possibility of sprinkles starting tonight! This is awful. I am so tired if old man Winter!

I need to get a place to stay in Australia - it's summer there right now!

Not much difference than the month and a half till Spring. Where did this all come from?

[Rightly Biased]

This is pitiful. A thousand people freezing their butts off waiting to worship a rat. What a hype. Groundhog Day used to mean something in this town. They used to pull the hog out, and they used to eat it. You’re hypocrites, all of you!

[Sir Napsalot]

Why?

It should be ‘pretty funny’ not ‘sad’.

[Uncle Chip]

Obviously Phil needs to regroup, consider the consequences, then go back outside and try again.

[CrazyIvan]

I got a .220 Swift round with Phils name on it.

I need to get a place to stay in Australia - it’s summer there right now!

Better yet go to Antarctica..must be real hot there, being so far South and all. sarc/

Ask those fools whose ship got ‘stuck’ in the ice while they were protesting ‘Global Warming’...

[GenXteacher]

Time for the Barnes Varmint Grenade...

[clearcarbon]

Was that his shadow he saw, or a DHS agent?

[The Great RJ]

I expected Phil would have predicted: “... if you like your weather you can keep it.”

[Qiviut]

Was that his shadow he saw, or a DHS agent?

DRONE!!!!

Breakfast food after sunrise, but booze at that hour?

Of course, 82,000 fans will soon fill Super Bowl stadium & make the morning groundhog crowd look like a Mensa gathering.
