Will it really get up to 58 today? Oh Joy!
No! Phil beats the rap when charges are dropped. No groundhog for Easter. Ohio DA drops charges.
Well, there's no such thing as a free ride. The handler is being considered for impeachment.A winter-weary Ohio prosecutor who filed a tongue-in-cheek criminal indictment against the famous Pennsylvania groundhog over his "prediction" of an early spring dropped the charge Tuesday. Butler County Prosecutor Mike Gmoser said Punxsutawney Phil has a "defense with teeth in it" since the animal's handler is taking the blame.
Tough crowd.

He assured Ohio's lesser-known fuzzy forecaster, Buckeye Chuck, he won't face prosecution for his own erroneous prediction. Chuck, it turned out, was granted immunity after agreeing to cooperate with the state.
"I'm kind of done with animal cases," Mr. Gmoser said. "Maybe another prosecutor can go after the Easter Bunny."

Very hot in Brooklyn the other morning but some severe thunderstorms and tornado systems. We got some oif the runoff winds up here and I thought the roof was going to get torn off the house. Strange clouds changing shapes and moving fast.
I keep my 2 feet on the ground, and my head in the twilight zone.
-3 C and 1 cm snow on the ground...

A common sight on the streets of Brooklyn. (;->) It's been a typical March, sun, rain, snow and blustery with yo yo temperatures as summer fights to kick winter. April showers bring May flowers and June isn't far behind, my favorite girlfriends.

So some say...
Something about those theories smells fishy.In the small town of Eden, N.Y., the recent appearance of mysterious circles in a frozen pond has residents baffled.
Last Friday, during an early spring snowstorm, Eden resident Peggy Gervase was looking at the pond near her home when she noticed an unusual pattern in the snow covering the water's surface: large circles that resembled giant polka dots.
"I've never seen this before in our pond," Gervase told local TV station WGRZ. "It's eerie in a way, but cool in a way."
After Gervase posted a photograph of the pond circles to the station's Facebook page, respondents offered a number of explanations for the strange circles, including elephant footprints, fish flatulence and aliens.
