On this past Groundhog Day

 

Our local groundhog did not see his shadow yesterday Feb 2nd on Groundhog Day meaning it's a sign of an early spring and he would have stayed above ground.  However the groundhog in Philadelphia saw his shadow meaning 6 more weeks of winter (he would have returned to his hole).  

We have having a somewhat milder week, last week was brutal.

    Let's wait and see who's right; so far we're experiencing freezing cold with strong winds on the coast where I live!
    Hopefully it will get warmer, which is good for you and me!
    hugs Elke

    Anything is possible this winter for us. We have remained dry but cold for a good portion of it here in the middle of the states. Yes, we've had more dustings than anything compared to those south of us or east of us. Still, bitter cold, but this week has been much milder. Adoring this groundhog ❤️

    That poor groundhog. But they always look so well fed. An interesting tradition we still carry on. Yes, milder here, but for how long? Thanks for the sweet Tuesday post ❤️

    Our groundhog in PA predicted six more weeks of winter, Christine. How do they know? LOL!

    The thing is if you get an early spring, here in New Hampshire we probably will too, since much of your weather comes across our way. I guess it will be what it is going to be. :)

    I have a feeling that we (in Florida) have about four more weeks of pleasant weather. ;)
