Ok, it’s that time of year again. Shadow or no shadow, that is the question.

Guests can vote.

I'm not sure how accurate the whole ground hog day is, but hopefully we'll be seeing warmer temps in a week, then on into our Spring and long hot Summer.  happy77

I think the groundhog will pop up see that Biden and the democrats are still in charge and high tail it back into his bunker to prepare himself.

Which ever one you like. Personally, I’m fond of Staten Island Chuck.

Play the odds. If "The Groundhog" is the one in Punxsutawney, there's around a 90% chance that he will. So I'm going with that.

Any groundhog that bites the mayor that feeds it is a friend of mine.

General Beauregard Lee did not see his shadow today, so count on an early spring this year.  Tomorrow, the temp will reach 70°F here in metro ATL.
