Today on the 2nd of February here in North America it is Groundhog Day where local groundhogs wake up and come out of their den to see if they see their shadow to predict how much longer winter is going to be..
One of the most famous Punxsutawney Phil along with another Phil and two others predict a early spring while General B Lee, Jimmy of Wisconsin (which should make Valarie happy) along with Sir Walter Wally and a couple of others say there will be 6 more weeks or more of winter.
So which groundhog prediction are you rooting for? Sorry General Lee the Georgia groundhog I have to root for the Phils prediction as I am tired of the the back and forth winter we have here and would like to see it warm up as the damp cold feels so much colder than the dry cold you have up north.
Now to turn the heat up a little and take a really arm shower to get the chill out of these bones.

Mary, this is Florida we live in. No matter which prediction comes true, we are going to have see-saw weather from now all the way through the spring.

@Elizaby There are days in there where we get all four seasons in the same day!

@moffittjc I am glad that we have nothing like this, because a groundhog that would predict early spring in Greece would be good there, but surely not for Norway, even if both nations are in Europe.

With the temperate weather we have been having, I vote that we're going to have an early spring.

Interesting information. I only knew of one groundhog. I'll take six more weeks of winter.
