Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow on Friday morning, and therefore we should be getting an early spring:

Hopefully Phil is right, because six more weeks of this shit and I’m gonna be asking the Calgary Flames for a mental health leave of absence. Anybody who says they enjoy winter is a liar. Winter is great if you like dreary and miserable with a complimentary sinus infection.
As an aside, this is pitiful. A thousand people, freezing their butts off, waiting to worship a rat. What a hype. Groundhog Day used to mean something in this town. They used to pull the hog out and they used to eat it. You’re hypocrites, all of ya. You got a problem with what I’m saying, Larry? Untie your tongue and you come out here and talk, huh? Am I upsetting you, princess? You want a prediction about the weather, you’re asking the wrong Phil. I’ll give you a winter prediction. It’s gonna be cold, it’s gonna be grey, and it’s gonna last you for the rest of your life.
