New York's Staten Island Chuck appeared to make his annual Groundhog Day prediction and the news is that Chuck failed to see his shadow at the Staten Island Zoo, leaving his fans to believe spring is near. "Chuck is the most accurate predictor, that's why he's become so popular," said Zoo Director Jon Caltabiano. Schwartz says the groundhog has been right 23 out of 27 times. But Chuck's forecast is being disputed in Pennsylvania, where the nation's most famous groundhog, Punxsutawney Phil, also gave his prediction. Phil saw his shadow, a sign that winter has six long weeks to go. Last year, both groundhogs predicted a short winter.
So who will get it right this time ? Only time will tell.
