Punxsutawney, Penn/Wiarton, Ontario (Weather Network/MSN News) – After this weekend’s torrential rain, we need a break… and a hopeful prediction.
So, the Groundhogs have spoken and the decision is?
Wiarton Willie says: EARLY SPRING
Willie initially announced 6 more weeks, but had second thoughts.
Well folks, my prediction is #official. With cloudy skies and snow falling upon us this morning in #Wiarton it was very hard to find my shadow – even with all the camera lights around! Fans of spring rejoice, an #EarlySpring is around the corner. #WiartonWillie #Wiarton pic.twitter.com/VEohypsXuU

Yes there are other Groundhogs, but we in the media take this soooo seriously that , well, we just go with the veterans who have been around the longest.
We now return you to a certain Bill Murray and Andie McDowell movie.
