"CNN :
Punxsutawney Phil, the famous groundhog weather watcher, was pulled from his warm burrow this morning and saw his shadow, predicting six more weeks of winter.


Each February 2, on Groundhog Day, the members of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club make the pilgrimage to Gobbler’s Knob — Phil’s official home. Legend has it, if he sees his shadow, six more weeks of winter are on the way. If he doesn’t, an early spring arrives.


In reality, winter will end on the spring equinox, known also as the vernal equinox, on March 20 at 5:01 a.m. ET, regardless of Sunday’s prediction. But weather conditions don’t always follow the timetable — and neither does Phil."

I wish we only had 6 weeks of winter left.
 
We ended up with about a foot of new snow today. Possibly several more feet on the way. I'm not going to try opening the road until this storm is over, the wind will just blow it in again anyway. We haven't been out since last Tuesday.
This is one of the things that we prep for.
 
Had windows open today, just remembered the kitchen window is still open, about 59 and clear at midnight. Monday will be even warmer, 82 for a high. Oh actually supposed to be really warm all week until next Sunday temps drop lower.
I had several windows open all night! We only went down to 55°, but the house is chilly this morning!! I'm looking for upper 80's today! We'll be back to February soon. It will be interesting to see how the month plays out!!
