If you were keeping your fingers crossed for an early spring, Punxsutawney Phil is here to dash your dreams.
Tuesday morning, the famous furry friend predicted six more weeks of winter during the annual Groundhog Day ceremony in Pennsylvania.
That means, he “saw” his shadow.
It's Groundhog Day. Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow Tuesday morning and, as legend holds, that means six additional weeks of heavy coats and mittens. https://t.co/GIpS9FYPnu

The yearly ritual with Punxsutawney Phil dates back to 1887.
It’s typically held with a massive crowd at Gobbler’s Knob Park, but this year because of coronavirus Phil was surrounded by cutouts of people instead.
How do you feel about winter hanging on for 6 more weeks? It is supposed to snow tomorrow…
