The groundhogs have spoken:
Shubenacadie Sam out of Nova Scotia was the first to give a prognostication - no shadow for Sam, meaning an early spring.
Punxsautaney Phil came next; after seeing his shadow, the famed groundhog predicted six more weeks of winter.
The final, deciding vote came from Ontario's own Wiarton Willie. The albino groundhog emerged to much fanfare from an adoring crowd, only to see his shadow as well.
