ps I can't believe no one remembered the Phil Connors line

Phil is crossing the street and his old acquaintance runs up to him... a puddle is involved... No?

Something's wrong, I can tell you that. The groundhog projection won't fit here. San Francisco is supposed to hit 70 degrees today, while surrounding areas have already been in the 70s and higher.

WHAT?!

If that began in January and is running into February, God help us July through October.

It's probably just your imagination.

I go by evidence, not imagination. Foggy SF went up to 106 in 2017. If you know anything about the Bay Area, you know what an anomaly that is, and the fact that we have basically no snow now is a real concern.

But thanks for trying LOL

I have been looking - is the movie scheduled today? I can not find any station broadcasting it. I will have to dig out my DVD.

I can't believe someone isn't showing it.

I believe it, we had snow this morning and it is cold and windy.

Same here (SW PA). Just shoveled snow off our deck and its snowing again. Lake effect snow so they say and it is cold, 18 degree without wind chill. Oh well, supposed to go to mid 30s tomorrow and Sunday but snow again Sunday.

Went once when we were very young - like 21. It is great if you like to drink.

I recall when I requested the day off to go my manager told me I'd need the next day off as well, but I didn't know why. OMG - one time and you'll know why you need 2 days off to go.

@Noel7 I actually live close to where that movie was filmed and when you go to that town there is a plaque on the sidewalk/street where the puddle was. I believe there is also a plaque on the bar where they had the drinks. We have friends who were extras in the movie. Every year since the movie was filmed there that town now has a big groundhog day celebration.

Also speaking of ground hog day we know someone who's daughter came home from preschool today and said they learned all about "corn dog day." I guess to a four year old ground hog sounds like corn dog.

Oh, my gosh, that is just TOO cute, @abbalulu Corn Dog Day

I just loved that move, and your local scenes were wonderful. I have a disc of the film and we watch it every year.
