Today, February 2, marks that day of infamy when Punxsutawney Phil crawls out and sees his shadow... or maybe he doesn't. In any case, it's a big deal. Considering the fact that we've been experiencing Spring weather conditions for almost a month in Western Colorado, do you plan to invest even one millisecond considering Punxsutawney Phil's prediction of six more weeks of Winter?

It seems a little strange even talking about it when we here in Western Colorado have temperatures in the mid 50's and are already out in our shorts jogging.

Well, Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow today, and apparently we are in for six more weeks of whatever this is we've been dealing with in Western Colorado. While I joke about our weather, my heart goes out to those in the North West. The news of Punxsutawney Phil  seeing his shadow was probably anything but music to their ears.

I'm not dismissing Punxsutawney Phil's forecast just to be a fuddy-duddy, I simply feel his prediction doesn't mean much to a bunch of Coloradans who are busy working on their tans in early February.
