Yep; he saw his shadow, so six more weeks of winter.

Had he not seen it, we would have had forty-two days.

Well still snowing here, about two feet worth of the stuff so far. So yeah it will be six weeks before it all melts.

Strange how Groundhogs can change our orbit around the Sun, don't you think?

A lot of snow for sure - the most I can remember in many years. Thank God for snowblowers.

NO way SI Chuck (Phil's local competitor, better average too) saw his shadow, too much snow in the air, VBG.
