5. Raining here in North Alabama. No shadows.

Tomorrow into Saturday is the last cold days. except for next weekend, and I will be hunkered down with the Super Bowl anyway.

Guess you could say only two more weeks of winter, and hardly that even.

7. Big difference between Dunkirk Dave vs. Punxsutawney Phil.

Dunkirk Dave did not see his shadow.


Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow.


Dunkirk Dave has a better track record of predicting an early spring.

8. Sudden death of Quebec's Fred la marmotte casts a shadow on Groundhog Day

https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/montreal/fred-la-marmotte-dies-1.6734368

"Fred la marmotte, the province's famous furry oracle in Val-d'Espoir, Que., was found dead overnight Thursday, hours before he was able to predict whether it would be an early or late spring."



"In life, the only thing that's certain is that nothing is certain," said a serious Roberto Blondin in front of a crowd of awaiting spectators.

"Well, this year it's true. It's true and it's unfortunate. I announce to you the death of Fred."

Blondin said he found the lifeless animal overnight when he tried to wake him. He said he had "no vital signs" and figures Fred passed away in late fall or early December, during hibernation, at the age of nine years old.>

Not sure what happens now - forever winter?
