The handlers for groundhog Punxsutawney Phil say he’s forecasting six more weeks of what already has felt like a brutally long and cold winter. Pennsylvania’s famed groundhog emerged from his lair in front of thousands of fans around daybreak yesterday. Legend has it that if the furry rodent sees his shadow on February 2nd, winter will last another month-and-a-half. In reality, Phil’s prediction is decided ahead of time by a group called the Inner Circle, whose members don top hats and tuxedos for the ceremony on Groundhog Day each year.
