Punxsutawney Phil (the "official" groundhog) reportedly did not see his shadow this morning, therefore predicting an early spring. Of the other 25 "rodents of note" including Staten Island Chuck, Jabari the Hedgehog and Dunkirk Dave, fourteen predicted an early spring and eleven predicted more winter. Poor Woodstock Willie of Woodstock, IL was sadly cancelled due to heavy snow. It has been said that Punxsutawney Phil has an accuracy rate of around 39%, while Portland's own Jabari the Hedgehog has an accuracy rate of 40%. Phil says spring and Jabari says more winter. So, who is correct? It's a math question for the ages.
