Groundhogs day is a disappointment

[Joe]

Except for the southwest and Virginia, most of the country was sunny at sunrise, meaning the earliest the boats will come out of storage is the middle to late April. Enjoy the late ice, and if you plan on buying a boat at a boat show, get ready for the longest two months of your life, I made that mistake a decade ago.

Ive learned that no matter what that groundhog says, ND will never have an early spring like the rest of the country. obviously if we're supposed to have spring "right around the corner", basically says that itll be april instead of may

pish posh, I'm bringing fancy feast home the week after state wrestling. There's work to be done.

the real question is did that squatch down by Ellendale see his shadow today?

 

[johnr]

The boy was sad about this hog shadow this morning too, I told him in ND we are going to have 10 more months of winter regardless of what phil sees, says, or does. God bless ND and our winters, would rather have my 4 seasons, but the 2 we get are okay too.

Looked it up... Since 1887 he's only been right 39% of the time... And here is his record
"Punxsutawney Phil have predicted 103 forecasts of more winter and 17 early springs. "

So statistically speaking it's just a joke lol...

I feel like I'm repeating the same day over and over....

I am glad you did the research on this, as I was under the impression that this shadow deal was space aged, like gorebal warming.

Say it isn't so as i was so hoping Phil prophecies were for real.

I was just curious what his actual record is! It's still better than some of the meteorologists sometimes;:;rofl

I think flipping a coin is better than most meteorologists.
