WEATHER DATA SHEET

Remember to collect weather data for your data sheet and Google Docs spreadsheet from www.weather.gov  (zip 01803) twice for both Saturday and Sunday, morning and evening - spaced 12 hours apart.  The 3 day history tab lets you do this all at once, just scroll down for earlier times and dates.


At 7:25 a.m.Saturday, amidst overcast skies, and frigid temperatures hovering around 8 degrees, Groundhog Phil failed to see his shadow in the small town of Punxsutawney, Pa.  According to folklore, no shadow for Phil means “there will be an early spring.” Had Phil seen his shadow, it would have meant six more weeks of winter.
