it’s his big day, and one of my favorite fun holidays

no matter what he predicts

about the coming of spring

(*not sure about his accuracy)

 i love his spirit.

 *the national climatic data center compared U.S. national temperatures from 1988 to 2012 to determine the accuracy of Phil’s predictions, and he’s only been proven correct 39% of the time — significantly worse than chance.

“Groundhog found fog. New snows and blue toes.

Fine and dandy for Valentine candy.

Snow spittin’;

you’ll be frostbitten!

By jing-y feels spring-y.”
