2023 Groundhog Day Prognostications

Groundhog Day was yesterday and the groundhogs (and those who identifiy as groundhogs) have made their prognostications.

Here is the list of the predictions from several groundhogs in the United States. Canada has several, but I ignored those because it's always winter in Canada. LOL

The most famous groundhog of them all, Punxsutawney Phil, of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania has predicted six more weeks of winter..

The Macon Media Whistle Pig takes the position of an early spring locally since it was cloudy and drizzling this morning on Main Street in Franklin. The other predictions are listed after the sponsored segment. Those who are not actually groundhogs are identified.
