Happy Groundhog Day


The Groundhogs are in conflict. If a groundhog sees his shadow, it means six more weeks of winter. If he doesn't see his shadow, then there will be an early spring.
  • Punxsutawney Phil (Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania) ~ saw his shadow
  • Chattanooga Chuck (Chattanooga, Tennessee) ~ saw his shadow
  • Staten Island Chuck (New York) ~ did not see his shadow
  • Shubenacadie Sam (Nova Scotia) ~ saw his shadow
  • Wiarton Willie (Ontario) ~ saw his shadow
  • Jimmy the Groundhog (Sun Prairie, Wisconsin) ~ did not see his shadow
  • General Beauregard Lee (Atlanta, Georgia) ~ did not see his shadow
  • Dunkirk Dave (Dunkirk, New York) ~ did not see his shadow
  • Malverne Mel and Malverne Melissa (Malverne, New York) ~ saw his shadow
  • Brandon Bob (Brandon, Manitoba) ~ saw his shadow
  • Balzac Billy (Balzac, Alberta) ~ did not see his shadow
  • Gary the Groundhog (Kleinburg, Ontario) ~ did not see his shadow
  • Spanish Joe (Spanish, Ontario) ~ saw his shadow
  • Sir Walter Wally (Raleigh, North Carolina) ~ announced at noon
  • Octoraro Orphie (Quarryville, Pennsylvania) ~ stuffed animal, does that count?
  • Holtsville Hal (Holtsville, New York) ~ saw his shadow
  • Buckeye Chuck (Marion, Ohio) ~ did not see his shadow
  • Manitoba Merv (Winnepeg, Manitoba ) ~ did not see his shadow
I think what all this means is that we will have an early spring ..... in about 6 weeks.
