Phil Says Six More Weeks!
Phil’s official forecast as read February 2nd, 2009 at sunrise at Gobbler’s Knob:Hear Ye Hear Ye Hear Ye
On Gobbler’s Knob on this glorious Groundhog Day, February 2nd, 2010, Punxsutawney Phil, Seer of Seers, Prognosticator of all Prognosticators awoke to the call of President Bill Deeley and greeted his handlers, John Griffiths and Ben Hughes.
After casting a joyful eye towards thousands of his faithful followers, Phil proclaimed, “If you want to know next, you must read my text. As the sky shines bright above me, my shadow I see beside me. So six more weeks of winter it will be.”
Well, it looks like 6 more weeks of winter….Not that it means much to the Colorado Springs real estate area! Colorado Springs benefits from gorgeous weather practically year-round. And I’m afraid there is nothing that the infamous groundhog can do about the spring snow storms that take us by surprise each year. That being said, I love the weather here. Snow in the morning, 50 in the afternoon…..Colorado Springs residents get the best of both worlds. And who doesn’t appreciate spring snow on the slopes!
