Default Did Phil get it wrong?

So, as many of you know, Phil saw his shadow, and predicted 6 more weeks of winter, as opposed to the proverbial "early spring". Did he get it wrong this year?

About a week ago, when it was still ridiculously cold, and we would get another foot of snow earlier in the week, I noticed a near-explosion in bird sounds and activities that seemed really weird. I told my wife about it, and she thought I was crazy.

She had off from work today, and we went to take Miss Belle for a walk, and she agreed, the frickin' bird sounds were roaring. Then, I came home from some errands, and found these two fellers also voicing a dissenting opinion to Phil's.

So, what say you Barners? Is Phil full of shit this year?

It's a trap. Sometimes March can be hellish - winter weather wise.

I know. The "Blizzard of '96" was a March storm. Dumped 3 feet of snow on NJ. Our long-range forecast (not that I put a lot of stock in that) shows high temps in at least the 40s every day through March 12th. I hope they're right!
