Groundhog Day – 2017

Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow today, so we can look forward to six more weeks of winter.

Potomac Phil, his “stuffy” counterpart here in the DC Metropolitan Area, concurred and had this to say: “Sorry folks six more weeks of winter and six more months of political gridlock!!!”  Based on the current political environment, six weeks of gridlock may be a very conservative estimate!

Groundhog Day 2013

Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow today, so we can anticipate an early spring this year rather than six more weeks of winter.  Or can we?

His competitor here in the DC Metropolitan Area.  Potomac Phil predicted six more weeks of winter.

My money’s on good old Punxsutawney Phil.  He’s a lot less “Stuffy” than the competition.
