"You’ll want to burrow away after hearing this.

Punxsutawney Phil predicted six more weeks of winter on Tuesday during the annual Groundhog Day ceremony in Pennsylvania."

"The yearly ritual, which dates back to 1887, was held virtually this year amid the coronavirus pandemic.

In place of the usual crowd at Gobbler’s Knob park in Jefferson County, Phil was surrounded by cutouts of fans who had hoped to be there in person."

My weather forecast app is giving three weeks before any half decent weather kicks in.

I am simply flabbergasted how quickly that Manmade Globull Warming has reversed itself after Joementia cancelled the Keystone Pipeline.

It’s a freaking Miracle I tell ya’...

I saw this live on TV this morning, it appeared to be snowing indicating no shadow and an early spring.

Not to worry. If it snowed 365 days in a row in Omaha the Greenie Experts would declare this the hottest year on record.

Punxsutawney Phil, Pavlov’s Dog, and Schrödinger’s Cat all go into a bar, but before they can say anything, the bartender yells out, “Hey!, no weather forecasting, bell ringing or causality violations in here!”

I believe I heard where it has a 40% accuracy rating. Maybe they could up it’s odds by teaching it to flip a coin.

I like a lot of historic practices from Americana of old, but it may be time to just STOP with the Groundhog Day rituals. The so-called ‘outcome’ is always the same.
Leave those Rats alone!

Woodstock Willie says early spring. I’ll go with Willie on this one; hope he’s right.

The reason I wouldn’t want it to stop, is it reminds my husband of our anniversary. He can’t forget it. 47 yrs.

Of course, Willie called for an early spring this morning, and this coming weekend is supposed to be the first below zero weather we’ve had all winter. Hopefully spring comes in right behind that...
