PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. (AP) — An end to winter’s bitter cold will come soon, according to Pennsylvania’s famous groundhog.
Following a recent stretch of weather that’s included both record warm temperatures and bitter cold, tornadoes in the South and Midwest, torrential rains in the mid-Atlantic and high winds in the Northeast, Punxsutawney Phil emerged from his lair Saturday in front of thousands in west-central Pennsylvania but didn’t see his shadow.

Phil lives in PA, so what does he know? It might've been overcast down there [or maybe Phil needs eye surgery after all these too many years], but here in Boston it was and is clear and cold. And if Candlemas be bright and clear ...
Did anyone check with the Talking Snake? The Burning Bush? Voices in the Sky?
Phil really doesn't look that healthy. I hope they're training a back up. (humor)
