Wrap up, furry Phil sees more winter ahead
The world's most famous furry forecaster "saw" his shadow this Groundhog Day morning, which, according to tradition, means six more weeks of winter. The prediction drew boos from thousands who gathered in -8º conditions to witness the 118th annual weather prediction.
The crowd, some clad in furry groundhog hats or even full costumes, chanted "Phil! Phil! Phil!" after fireworks and a night of rock music drew to an end and the ceremony neared.
