The groundhog saw his shadow. Six more weeks of winter apparently. Can see that with this forecast!

MILWAUKEE (CBS 58)--Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow early Sunday morning.  According to legend, this mean six more weeks of winter.  According to the forecast, at least for this week, it makes sense. We get one mild day after the light snow and freezing drizzle from Sunday morning.  Highs will be well in the 40s.  But then we drop off into the 20s and 30s for most of the week.  We also have a few chances of some wintry precipitation, including rain/snow mix Monday morning, mainly north of I-94, more rain/snow mix Wednesday afternoon and night, and then perhaps a more substantial storm on Saturday with snow.  Stay tuned.  We really need the snowfall.  We have a deficit of more than a foot and a half.

How about some good news?  On Wednesday, the average high is at 32.  Finally!  Plus we gain about an hour of daylight during the month of February.  Daylight Saving Time is just five weeks away too!
