Nobody believes that nonsense...it is just fun! Actually, I'm surprised he even came out of his hidey-hole in this weather.

{#emotions_dlg.thumbdown} Groundhog Jimmy in Sun Prairie, WI saw his shadow today too. We all know around this part of the country, we will always have 6 more weeks of winter. We live about an hour away from him. It is still a fun celebration of sorts.{#emotions_dlg.thumbup}

I read somewhere that Phil sport's a measly 39% prediction rate. The Bill Murray movie was interesting for sure.

I'm glad the various groundhogs are in agreement this year. I think Phil was wrong last year and winter dragged on.

I have my own backyard weathermen that eat my birdseed and I can't wait until they emerge! My cat loves watching them too even though she's smaller than them.
