Today was Groundfrog Day.
Not sure what that is? It's the Northwest's version of Groundhog Day.
Today the Northwest Frognostication Ceremony took place in Snohomish, WA.
Much like Punxsutawney Phil predicts the weather for the next eight weeks, so does Washington's very own Snohomish Slew the bullfrog. And Slew gets his prediction out a few days before Phil.
Snohomish Slew, who also goes by the title of Meteorologist Frognosticator extraordinaire, will come out tomorrow to make a prediction if the Northwest will be enjoying spring soon or another eight weeks of winter.
His predictions are of course announced by his scribes.
The question is, did he see his shadow?
Around my house in Issaquah we didn't. But then again it seems like spring has been here for a few weeks.
