Warrant for Al Gore to follow.
Via Fox News:
A “warrant” is out for Punxsutawney Phil’s arrest months after the famous groundhog spotted his shadow, predicting six more weeks of winter on Groundhog Day.
The six weeks is up and, well, it appears winter is here to stay – at least, that’s what one Pennsylvania sheriff’s officer is saying after a fourth Nor’easter struck the East Coast.
The Monroe County Sheriff’s Office says Phil’s forecast expired last week, yet a spring storm brought more snow to millions of people across the Northeast on Wednesday and Thursday. Some areas saw several inches of snow. Long Island, in particular, was slammed with 19 inches in some areas.
Parts of Pennsylvania saw more than a foot of snow.
“It’s time to move on to another season,” Pancho Ortega, who was shoveling the sidewalk outside of his restaurant in Philadelphia, told The Associated Press on Thursday.
Cpl. Scott Martin, of Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, jumped into action to save spring. He created and printed out a poster with a photo and description of Punxsutawney Phil, seeking his immediate arrest.
He pinned the piece of paper to what he calls the station’s “wall of shame,” WBRE-TV reports.
