"The AccuWeather Long Range Forecasting Team thinks longest stretch of cold is yet to come for the Great Lakes and Northeast, but spring will arrive early for many.

"Phil saw his shadow for Groundhog Day 2012 in Punxsutawney, Pa., forecasting another six weeks of winter for the U.S.

"There is some winter left on the table, but not a full six weeks for most of the U.S.," responds Paul Pastelok, expert long-range meteorologist and leader of the AccuWeather.com Long-Range Forecasting Team, after Phil's prognostication."
