Groundhog Day 2011: Did the Groundhog See His Shadow?

By AAyles on February 2nd, 2011

The largest winter storm in years has just left its mark on certain parts of the US but that hasn’t stopped Punxsutawney Phil – the world’s most popular groundhog – from making his annual prediction.

So Did Punxsutawney Phil See His Shadow This Morning?

The answer is no, which means that spring is on its way early this year!

Traditions show that if the famous groundhog sees his shadow, we will face at least six more weeks of winter, if he doesn’t see his shadow (which happened this morning), spring will be rolling in before we know it.

A little bit of good news during the unfortunate weather circumstances this year.

It was also just announced that Canada’s most famous groundhog, Wiarton Willie did not see his shadow either.

Looks like spring is on its way early for everyone!
