<p>Phil the Groundhog didn’t see his shadow and predicts an early Spring. All I can say is from Phil’s shadow to Mother Nature’s ears! He didn’t see his shadow due to a massive ice storm that was hitting the Northeast. I sure hope he’s right because I can’t take much more of this weather!</p>
<p>LOL. :D</p>
<p>No shadow here either. Whiteout from the blizzard.</p>
<p>Does it still count if he’s snowed in to his little burrow? Oh hell - I don’t even care. Just bring on spring!!!</p>
<p>^^^ Agree!!! Don’t care if it’s all a big superstition/joke/hoax --I’m completely willing to grab at any and all straws.</p>
<p>I’d be happy to see my GRASS if there is an “early spring”…which is doubtful.</p>
<p>Grass is a myth, an ancient legend. Let go of your belief in it, Thumper, and embrace the truth of never ending snow and ice.</p>
<p>Our local groundhog didn’t see his shadow either, but we’re still dealing with sleet & freezing rain now.</p>
<p>Sleeting rain probably had something to do with the lack of a shadow, but I agree that we’ll take that prediction!</p>
<p>aren’t the two choices…six more weeks of winter OR an early spring? Where I am, if spring comes in six weeks…that would be considered an early spring!!</p>
<p>Unfortunately I heard reports of a Spring with continued storms in the way of heavy rain showers! 
Hope they’re wrong on that prediction.</p>
