That is, if you like to get your weather prediction from a groundhog in Pennsylvania. Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow Tuesday morning and, as legend holds, that means six additional weeks of heavy coats and mittens. Phil was awakened at 7:25 a.m. and made his prediction in front of about 16 members of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club at Gobbler’s Knob. «Now, when I turn to see, there’s a perfect shadow cast of me. Six more weeks of winter there will be,» one of Phil’s handlers announced on his behalf at the ceremony. The celebration, which is over a century old, looked a little different this year. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, there were no crowds in attendance or guests present.
