Winter or Spring?

Groundhog Day was February 2nd. Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow that day predicting six more weeks of winter. Does that mean our winter will be over in 6 weeks on March 16th? Maybe it will end on the first day of spring on March 20th. Or, maybe we’ll still have ice on the lakes for the opening of fishing weekend in May. We still have plenty of snow cover even after yesterday’s warmer temperatures in the 40’s. The snow melt stopped with the below zero temperatures last night. Will spring ever come?
