Punxsutawney Phil, the world-famous meteorologist/groundhog, made his annual prediction on Saturday, emerging from his burrow at 7:30 am ET unable to see his shadow. According to lore, this means spring is on its way.
But don’t go packing away your winter clothes on the recommendation of this rodent. Phil has a pretty terrible track-record on his weather predictions: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration says he’s only right about 40 percent of the time.
Hopefully he is correct this time.
