Punxsutawney Phil Sees Shadow - Six More Weeks of Winter

According to Punxsutawney Phil, who saw his shadow this morning, we will experience six more weeks of winter. Phil was joined by thousands of fans in the early morning of Monday, February 2nd. Legend has it that if he did not see his shadow, spring would arrive early. Therefore, winter will not end as soon as we would have liked.

He was greeted by his fans at his home in Gobbler's Knob, northeast of Pittsburgh. For a look at his official website and to see numerous photos of his fans who gathered this morning, click on the title of this post or on this link.

No doubt Phil was also celebrating the last minute Super Bowl win by the Pittsburgh Steelers.

As an Arizona Cardinals fan, I would say neither Pittsburgh event was good news.
