Re: Happy Groundhog Day!

At this point i'd take 6 more weeks just because with they way we are going we'll have snow until July. I'm so sick of it all!

Re: Happy Groundhog Day!

Sir Walter Wally, who lives in Raleigh, North Carolina, says 6 more weeks also. But tomorrow it will be in the mid-70s! Dumb groundhogs. In my entire life I think I only remember Punxsutawney Phil, who apparently has spent his whole life in Gobbler's Knob, making the counter-prognostication maybe 3 times.

I'm thinking I never want to move to Gobbler's Knob or Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania!

Of course, I don't really believe in any of this groundhog stuff. Pffft. Just a silly German legend that immigrated to America with them. After all, the Canadian study pretty much busted that myth.

Nope, for me, I stick with the more accurate:

"A cow's tail to the west is weather coming at its best; a cow's tail to the east is weather coming at its least."

Re: Happy Groundhog Day!

I've always heard:
If crows fly low, winds going to blow;
if crows fly high, winds going to die

And one that I can attest to while camping:
When smoke descends, good weather ends
