REPORT: Groundhog Day 2012: Punxsutawney Phil

Punxsutawney Phil is a groundhog resident of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. Since 1887, a parcel of land as a Gobbler Knob, known in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, weather forecasts, the capital of the world for one day in February. Yes, it's Groundhog Day! Against 07.20 clock
(East), Punxsutawney Phil will determine how many weeks of winter we have - which met in considering it as 60 degrees in parts of North, yesterday, not much to be so bad. If Phil sees his shadow, we are expected six weeks of winter, if not, we are in store for an early start to spring.
The Associated Press reports:
Phil has seen his shadow 99 times and hasn’t seen it just 16 times since 1886, according to the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club’s Inner Circle, which runs the event. There are no records for the remaining years.

Of course, it was only just 39% of the time.
