Punxsutawney Phil is said to be predicting six more weeks of wintry weather after he saw his shadow Monday. His annual prediction was translated by his handlers at Gobbler’s Knob in western Pennsylvania. The Punxsutawney Groundhog Club says that when Phil is deemed to have not seen his shadow, that means there will be an early spring. When he does see it, it’s six more weeks of winter. Phil tends to predict a longer winter far more often than an early spring.
