Phil Says Six More Weeks!

Phil's official forecast as read February 2nd, 2009 at sunrise at Gobbler's Knob:

Hear Ye Hear Ye Hear Ye

On Gobbler's Knob on this glorious Groundhog Day, February 2nd, 2010, Punxsutawney Phil, Seer of Seers, Prognosticator of all Prognosticators awoke to the call of President Bill Deeley and greeted his handlers, John Griffiths and Ben Hughes.

After casting a joyful eye towards thousands of his faithful followers, Phil proclaimed, "If you want to know next, you must read my text. As the sky shines bright above me, my shadow I see beside me. So six more weeks of winter it will be."

And so I thought ok, maybe it's 6 more weeks of winter in Punxsutawney, PA but what about good ol' Connecticut. The Lutz Childrens Museum, Manchester, has their own spokesman


 
Connecticut's Own Groundhog has Spoken
They came from far and wide this morning to see the official state groundhog.

Mayor Lou Spadaccini, who speaks fluent groundhog, acted as an interpreter as she delivered the news. It seems that the groundhog saw her shadow. That means six more weeks of winter here in Connecticut, folks.

That's okay Molly. We love you anyway.
