An Early Spring? North Escambia Weather Ducks Miss Shadow
February 2, 2016
On this Groundhog Day, Punxsutawney Phil, the world famous groundhog, did not see his shadow and predicted an early spring. Our local weather guys, the NorthEscambia.com Weather Ducks, also missed their shadow Tuesday morning and predicted an early spring from Walnut Hill, FL.
Forklore says that if the groundhog sees his shadow on Groundhog Day, it means six more weeks of winter. We did not have a groundhog handy for a photo, but we did have the NorthEscambia.com Weather Ducks.
For those that might be a little unsure as to the weather ducks’ ability, we offer the two photographs below showing the weather ducks predicting six more weeks of winter on Groundhog Day 2010 and 10 days later with their snowman in Atmore.

The NorthEscambia Weather Ducks Rock! Lol!
Too cute to be wrong! All hale the Walnut Hill Weather Ducks.
Its not Spring already here? Punxsutawney Phil is only 40% accurate with those predictions. You’d be better off flipping a coin.
