Punxsutawney Phil and Woodstock Willie emerged from their respective hideouts Wednesday to deliver their annual dueling Groundhog Day prognostications.
The results played out like a scene from the 1993 film starring Bill Murray, in that they were an exact repeat of 2021’s proclamations.
Phil, whose been at this for 136 years, saw his shadow and, through his human interpreters, predicated six more weeks of winter. An hour later, Willie countered with a promise of an early spring.
We predict one of them is right.
