Dear Friends: "Let's get things back into perspective here!"

It's a sad day for weather prognosticators, folks.

First there was Punxsutawney Phil, who heralded the arrival of spring down there in Pennsylvania every year, and then we have Wiarton Willy up here in Ontario.

Well, it is with a heavy heart that we announce the passing of Willy due to seeing a shadow one too many times kids! (It was the shadow of a truck that was about to lay him flat.)

Fortunately Phil had an understudy named "Wee Willy" and he will be providing forecasts of the arrival of spring from now on.

Rest in peace, Phil!
