Punxsutawney Phil predicts more wintry weather

Pennsylvania's most famous groundhog predicted six more weeks of winter.

Despite the cloudy skies and light snow, Punxsutawney Phil managed to see its shadow, meaning more wintry weather can be expected.

Phil's handlers were set to announce at sunrise Friday what kind of weather they say the rodent is predicting for the rest of winter.


In reality, Phil's prediction is decided ahead of time by the group on Gobbler's Knob, a tiny hill just outside of Punxsutawney. That's about 65 miles (about 100 kilometers) northeast of Pittsburgh.
