...is this "Groundhog thingie" they push every year?
According to my calendar, it's not too precise.
If you turn the page on my calendar you see that Spring starts on the 20th of March (of course it IS a "Chick-fill-'er-up" calendar, so by not including Sundays it may not be too accurate in itself (inside joke - I'm still trying to get a Sunday dinner at the local one...).
By counting the days/weeks between Feb 2nd and Mar 20th, there seem to be 6 weeks and 4 days. Don't those 4 days count for anything? Any other time if you lose 4 days you'd be pretty pissed, wouldn't you? (especially for those extra 4 days before 'tax day' for a lot of you)
And what's the big deal anyway? 6 more weeks of winter if he sees his shadow, 6 weeks and 4 days whether he sees it or not, and 'right around the corner' if he doesn't see it. I'm starting to see a scam here - am I the only one? (Oh sure, you all knew about it, and just didn't tell me, right?)
This may take more research....
