Is it Spring Yet?
Our class predicted this:
Once again, we have a groundhog named Shadow! It was 37 degrees F and snowy in Baker City, Oregon today. Our high was 37 degrees F. All students, except for one, said the groundhog saw his shadow and predicted 6 more weeks of winter!
But here's what we have:
No snow. Temperatures in the 50's and 60's. The grass is getting green. Daffodils are blooming in some places. Students are beginning to shed coats at recess.
Did the groundhog predict correctly?
No.
Did we have 6 more weeks of winter?
No, not quite six. It's almost like spring in Baker City, Oregon.
