CINCINNATI — A shadow of a different kind is hanging over Punxsutawney Phil.

"Authorities in still-frigid Ohio have issued an "indictment" against the famed groundhog, who predicted an early spring when he didn't see his shadow after emerging from his lair in western Pennsylvania on Feb. 2.

Spring arrived Wednesday, and temperatures are still hovering in the 30s in the Buckeye state and much of the Northeast. While it's not the coldest spring on record, it's a good 5 degrees below normal, said Don Hughes, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Wilmington, Ohio."

Bob, Phil really stepped in it this time. I have a shirt and a sweatshirt on it's so cold here in Tennessee. I hope he gets life with solitary confinement. Oh right, he already has that.

It's about time you put that little impersonator of a weather man in the hooskaw.

Let's retire him to Florida.
