Punxsutawney Phil did not see his shadow this morning on Gobbler’s Knob so that means an early Spring for us here in Pennsylvania. (Of course, we want to wait to see what Grover the Groundhog says, too, to confirm … always double-check your sources!)
And at least for the next week here in Schuylkill County, you might have reason to believe the rodent was right.
Outside of some scattered snow flurries today, the next 7 days are going to give everyone reason to believe Spring is right around the corner.
By the middle of next week, we could be looking at high temps approaching 50 degrees once again. Not too shabby for February!
