Don’t blame me Phil is the one who saw his shadow.

In just Breaking Badly Bad News©, at roughly 7AM this morning Punxsawtaney Phil emerged from his lair, saw his shadow, and then one can only assume hurried back to his lair as quickly as possible to stay warm over what tradition has it will be six weeks more winter.
While locally Massachusetts’ Official Groundhog and Lincon MA resident Ms. G has yet to weigh in what’s up for this winter, the last couple of days of a bit colder than normal weather in Eastern Massachusetts are expected to be followed by high winds and at least a near-record setting arctic deep freeze starting Friday night and continuing until Sunday early morning.
“FYI, not my fault.” Not this time anyway …

In short, so much for the just past January in the Greater Boston Area that was one of the warmest Januaries on record.

Feed that varmint to the coyotes. Drop it off anywhere along Sea St.
Johnson,
An FYI: coyotes are way too smart to risk life and limb travelling on Sea Street what with its potholes here and there and speed-crazed Nekkers racing about along all of it. Better to dump the varmint along the tip of Rock Island Road. The coyote that lives along the water eats most anything put in front of her.
Interestingly, spring is about six weeks away in any case.
But I like the idea of feeding groundhogs to the coyotes.
