New York City 10011 Pollen Forecast
A2AD Newswire - New York NY - Wed 08 Sep 2010
A2AD Weather Newswire, NYC 10011 Pollen Forecast 09-08-2010 14:09 *MEDIUM-HIGH* - Allergy Index Level: low, low-med, med, med-high, high. The weather plays a significant role when it comes to seasonal allergies. The Pollen Season can vary from year to year depending on weather factors. Wind plays a large role in determining how much your allergies will act up. Windy conditions cause greater pollen and mold distribution and that leads to an increase in allergy symptoms. Plant pollens carried by the wind are the cause of most nose, eye, and lung allergic reactions. Hay fever sufferers seem to be especially affected by windy, dry conditions. Rain can bring welcome relief for allergy sufferers, if it rains heavy enough. Light rain does little to reduce the pollen in the air, a good heavy rain can clean the air for the hours during and after it falls. In the springtime, rain can help reduce tree pollen counts. However, wet conditions trigger grass growth, and consequently, more grass pollen in the late spring and early summer. Rain in the fall or winter can lead to greater tree pollen counts the following spring. Air pollution has been shown to worsen allergies and asthma symptoms. Recent research has also shown that ozone can cause a chronic inflammation of the airways for asthma sufferers. The effects of pollutants are usually not felt by those affected until one or two days after exposure. Some scientists also believe that exposure to diesel engine exhaust can increase a person's sensitivity to pollen or dust mites. The onset of cooler weather can be bad news for some asthma and eczema sufferers. A sudden drop in temperature can trigger asthma attacks while colder, drier weather often makes atopic eczema worse. Fluctuating winter temperatures can also cause cold-induced urticaria, or hives. Hives can develop when skin is exposed to cold or warmed after exposure to cold. On a positive note, a late season freeze following a mild winter can reduce a tree's pollen production. A mild winter can cause trees to pollinate earlier and could bring an early start to the allergy season. Mild and warm weather that continues in the spring also can increase pollen counts. Mild winters can also cause misery for those allergic to mold. A combination of mild weather and rains can lead to an increase in mold spore counts. A sudden increase in temperature can trigger asthma attacks. Pollens are tiny egg-shaped powdery grains released from flowering plants, which are carried by the wind or insects, and serve to cross-pollinate other plants of the same type for reproductive purposes. When pollen is present in the air, it can land in a person's eyes, nose, lungs, and on their skin to set up an allergic reaction. A seasonal allergy is an allergic reaction to a trigger that is typically only present for part of a year, such as spring or fall. This type of allergy refers to a pollen allergy, such as trees, weeds, and grasses. Perennial allergies, on the other hand, are usually present year-round, and include allergens such as pet dander and house dust mite. Molds can be a seasonal or perennial allergy trigger. Pollen can travel long distances and the levels in the air can vary from day to day. The pollen level can be quite different in various areas of a particular city or area. Levels of pollen tend to be highest from early morning to mid-morning, from 5 a.m. to 10 a.m. Spring allergies are a result of pollen from trees, which can start pollinating anytime from January to April, depending on the climate and location. Trees that are known to cause severe allergies include oak, olive, elm, birch, ash, hickory, poplar, sycamore, maple, cypress, and walnut. In some areas of the world, some weeds will also pollinate in the springtime. Grass pollen is typically the main cause of late spring and early summer allergies. Grass pollen is highest at these times. However, grass may cause allergies through much of the year if someone is mowing the lawn or lying in the grass. In conclusion, the discomfort hayfever sufferers experience during the late winter through fall allergy season is created by allergic reactions to various types of grass, weed and tree pollen, and mold spores. ###

Rip Current Risk Forecast
A2AD Newswire - New York NY - Wed 08 Sep 2010
Rip Current Risk Forecast. RIP CURRENT AWARENESS WEEK 06-12 June 2010. NJ Beach Riptide Current Risk 09-08-2010 is LOW. Ocean Surf Rip Risk: low, moderate, high. Rip Current Outlooks use the following, three-tiered set of qualifiers: Low Risk of rip currents. Wind and/or wave conditions are not expected to support the development of rip currents; however, rip currents can sometimes occur, especially in the vicinity of groins, jetties, and piers. Know how to swim and heed the advice of lifeguards. Moderate Risk of rip currents. Wind and/or wave conditions support stronger or more frequent rip currents. Only experienced surf swimmers should enter the water. High Risk of rip currents. Wind and/or wave conditions support dangerous rip currents. Rip currents are life-threatening to anyone entering the surf. When you arrive at the beach, speak with on-duty lifeguards about rip currents and all other water conditions expected for the day. Rip currents are channels of fast-moving water that can pull even seasoned swimmers away from shore. Panic and exhaustion can cause victims to drown. Rushing at speeds of up to eight feet per second, rip currents can move faster than an Olympic swimmer and quickly overpower its victim. To “Break the Grip of the Rip™,” those caught should swim in a direction following the shoreline until out of the current’s reach, then swim at an angle toward shore. Swimmers are advised to remain in the view of a lifeguard and heed all warnings before entering and while in the water. Rip Current Safety Tips: Learn how to swim. When at the beach: Whenever possible, swim at a lifeguard-protected beach. Never swim alone. Learn how to swim in the surf. It's not the same as swimming in a pool or lake. Be cautious at all times, especially when swimming at unguarded beaches. If in doubt, don’t go out. Obey all instructions and orders from lifeguards. Lifeguards are trained to identify potential hazards. Ask a lifeguard about the conditions before entering the water. This is part of their job. Stay at least 100 feet away from piers and jetties. Permanent rip currents often exist along side these structures. Consider using polarized sunglasses when at the beach. They will help you to spot signatures of rip currents by cutting down glare and reflected sunlight off the ocean’s surface. Pay especially close attention to children and elderly when at the beach. Even in shallow water, wave action can cause loss of footing. If caught in a rip current: Remain calm to conserve energy and think clearly. Never fight against the current. Think of it like a treadmill that cannot be turned off, which you need to step to the side of. Swim out of the current in a direction following the shoreline. When out of the current, swim at an angle--away from the current--towards shore. If you are unable to swim out of the rip current, float or calmly tread water. When out of the current, swim towards shore. If you are still unable to reach shore, draw attention to yourself by waving your arm and yelling for help. If you see someone in trouble, don't become a victim too: Get help from a lifeguard. If a lifeguard is not available, have someone call 9-1-1. Throw the rip current victim something that floats--a lifejacket, a cooler, an inflatable ball. Yell instructions on how to escape. Remember, many people drown while trying to save someone else from a rip current. ###

Tornado Information And Safety Tips
A2AD Newswire - New York NY - Wed 08 Sep 2010
A2AD Newswire, Wed 08 Sep 2010. Tornado Safety Tips BEFORE A TORNADO: Have a disaster plan. Make sure everyone knows where to go in case a tornado threatens. Make sure you know which county or parish you live in. Prepare a disaster supplies kit for your home and car. Include a first aid kit, canned food and a can opener, bottled water, battery-operated radio, flashlight, protective clothing and written instructions on how to turn off electricity, gas, and water. DURING A TORNADO: Go to a basement. If you do not have a basement, go to an interior room without windows on the lowest floor such as a bathroom or closet. If you can, get under a sturdy piece of furniture, like a table. If you live in a mobile home get out. They offer little protection against tornadoes. Get out of automobiles. Do not try to outrun a tornado in your car, leave it immediately. If you’re outside, go to a ditch or low lying area and lie flat in it. Stay away from fallen power lines and stay out of damaged areas. IF YOU’RE AT SCHOOL DURING A TORNADO: Every school should have a disaster plan and have frequent drills. Basements offer the best protection. Schools without basements should use interior rooms and hallways on the lowest floor away from windows. Crouch down on your knees and protect your head with your arms. AFTER A TORNADO: Stay indoors until it is safe to come out. Check for injured or trapped people, without putting yourself in danger. Watch out for downed power lines. Use a flashlight to inspect your home. Fujita Scale of Tornado Intensity defining SCALE, WIND SPEED, POSSIBLE DAMAGE: F0 < 40-72 mph Light damage: Branches broken off trees; minor roof damage. 65-85 mph F1 < 73-112 mph Moderate damage: Trees snapped; mobile home pushed off foundations; roofs damaged. 86-110 mph F2 < 113-157 mph Considerable damage: Mobile homes demolished; trees uprooted; strong built homes unroofed. 111-135 mph F3 < 158-206 mph Severe damage: Trains overturned; cars lifted off the ground; strong built homes have outside walls blown away. 136-165 mph F4 < 207-260 mph Devastating damage: Houses leveled leaving piles of debris; cars thrown 300 yards or more in the air. 166-200 mph F5 < 261-318 mph Incredible damage: Strongly built homes completely blown away; automobile-sized missiles generated.

TORNADO WATCH - Tornadoes are possible in your area. Stay tuned to the radio or television news. TORNADO WARNING - A tornado is either on the ground or has been detected by Doppler radar. Seek shelter immediately! What is a tornado: A tornado is a violent rotating column of air extending from a thunderstorm to the ground. The most violent tornadoes are capable of tremendous destruction with wind speeds of up to 300 mph. They can destroy large buildings, uproot trees and hurl vehicles hundreds of yards. They can also drive straw into trees. Damage paths can be in excess of one mile wide to 50 miles long. In an average year, 1000 tornadoes are reported nationwide. How do tornadoes form: Most tornadoes form from thunderstorms. You need warm, moist air from the Gulf of Mexico and cool, dry air from Canada. When these two air masses meet, they create instability in the atmosphere. A change in wind direction and an increase in wind speed with increasing height creates an invisible, horizontal spinning effect in the lower atmosphere. Rising air within the updraft tilts the rotating air from horizontal to vertical. An area of rotation, 2-6 miles wide, now extends through much of the storm. Most strong and violent tornadoes form within this area of strong rotation. What is a funnel cloud: A funnel cloud is a rotating cone-shaped column of air extending downward from the base of a thunderstorm, but not touching the ground. When it reaches the ground it is called a tornado. What is a supercell thunderstorm: A supercell thunderstorm is a long-lived thunderstorm whose updrafts and downdrafts are in near balance. These storms have the greatest tendency to produce tornadoes that stay on the ground for long periods of time. Supercell thunderstorms can produce violent tornadoes with winds exceeding 200 mph. What is a wall cloud: A wall cloud is an abrupt lowering of a rain-free cumulonimbus base into a low-hanging accessory cloud. A wall cloud is usually situated in the southwest portion of the storm. A rotating wall cloud usually develops before tornadoes or funnel clouds. What is a waterspout: A waterspout is just a weak tornado that forms over water. They are most common along the Gulf Coast. Waterspouts can sometimes move inland, becoming tornadoes causing damage and injuries. What is hail: Hail is created when small water droplets are caught in the updraft of a thunderstorm. These water droplets are lifted higher and higher into the sky until they freeze into ice. Once they become heavy, they will start to fall. If the smaller hailstones get caught in the updraft again, they will get more water on them and get lifted higher in the sky and get bigger. Once they get lifted again, they freeze and fall. This happens over and over again until the hailstone is too heavy and then falls to the ground. What is a gustnado: A gustnado is a short-lived, relatively weak whirlwind that forms along a gust front. A gust front is the surge of very gusty winds at the leading edge of a thunderstorm's outflow of air. Gustnadoes are not tornadoes. They do not connect with any cloud-base rotation. But because gustnadoes often have a spinning dust cloud at ground level, they are sometimes wrongly reported as tornadoes. Gustnadoes can do minor damage. What is a landspout: A landspout is a very weak tornado that is not associated with a wall cloud or a mesocyclone. It is the land equivalent of a waterspout. When are tornadoes most likely to occur: Tornadoes can happen at any time of the year and at any time of the day. In the southern states, peak tornado season is from March through May. Peak times for tornadoes in the northern states are during the summer. A few southern states have a second peak time for tornado outbreaks in the fall. Tornadoes are most likely to occur between 3 p.m. and 9 p.m. Where are tornadoes most likely to occur: The geography of the central part of the United States, known as the Great Plains, is suited to bring all of the ingredients together to forms tornadoes. More than 500 tornadoes typically occur in this area every year and is why it is commonly known as "Tornado Alley". Visit www.a2ad.com/wx/ ###

Sunspot Is Harbinger Of New Solar Cycle - Risk for Electrical Systems
A2AD Newswire - New York NY - Wed 08 Sep 2010
A2AD Newswire, Wed 08 Sep 2010. NOAA: Sunspot is Harbinger of New Solar Cycle, Increasing Risk for Electrical Systems. A new 11-year cycle of heightened solar activity, bringing with it increased risks for power grids, critical military, civilian and airline communications, GPS signals and even cell phones and ATM transactions, showed signs it was on its way late yesterday when the cycles first sunspot appeared in the suns Northern Hemisphere, NOAA scientists said. This sunspot is like the first robin of spring, said solar physicist Douglas Biesecker of NOAAs Space Weather Prediction Center. In this case, its an early omen of solar storms that will gradually increase over the next few years. A sunspot is an area of highly organized magnetic activity on the surface of the sun. The new 11-year cycle, called Solar Cycle 24, is expected to build gradually, with the number of sunspots and solar storms reaching a maximum by 2011 or 2012, though devastating storms can occur at any time. During a solar storm, highly charged material ejected from the sun may head toward Earth, where it can bring down power grids, disrupt critical communications, and threaten astronauts with harmful radiation. Storms can also knock out commercial communications satellites and swamp Global Positioning System signals. Routine activities such as talking on a cell phone or getting money from an ATM machine could suddenly halt over a large part of the globe. Our growing dependence on highly sophisticated, space-based technologies means we are far more vulnerable to space weather today than in the past, said Vice Admiral Conrad C. Lautenbacher, Jr., under secretary of commerce for oceans and atmosphere and NOAA administrator. NOAAs space weather monitoring and forecasts are critical for the nations ability to function smoothly during solar disturbances. SWPC is the nations first alert for solar activity and its effects on Earth. The centers space weather forecasters issue outlooks for the next 11-year solar season and warn of individual storms occurring on the sun that could impact Earth. SWPC is one of NOAAs nine National Centers for Environmental Prediction and is also the warning agency of the International Space Environment Service (ISES), a consortium of 11 member nations. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, an agency of the U.S. Commerce Department, is dedicated to enhancing economic security and national safety through the prediction and research of weather and climate-related events and information service delivery for transportation, and by providing environmental stewardship of our nation's coastal and marine resources. Through the emerging Global Earth Observation System of Systems (GEOSS), NOAA is working with its federal partners, more than 70 countries and the European Commission to develop a global monitoring network that is as integrated as the planet it observes, predicts and protects.

NOAA Expects Busy Atlantic Hurricane Season 2010
A2AD Newswire - New York NY - Wed 08 Sep 2010
A2AD Newswire, Wed 08 Sep 2010. NOAA Expects Busy Atlantic Hurricane Season 2010. An “active to extremely active” hurricane season is expected for the Atlantic Basin this year according to the seasonal outlook issued by NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center – a division of the National Weather Service. As with every hurricane season, this outlook underscores the importance of having a hurricane preparedness plan in place. Across the entire Atlantic Basin for the six-month season, which begins June 1, NOAA is projecting a 70 percent probability of the following ranges: 14 to 23 Named Storms (top winds of 39 mph or higher), including: 8 to 14 Hurricanes (top winds of 74 mph or higher), of which: 3 to 7 could be Major Hurricanes (Category 3, 4 or 5; winds of at least 111 mph) “If this outlook holds true, this season could be one of the more active on record,” said Jane Lubchenco, Ph.D., under secretary of commerce for oceans and atmosphere and NOAA administrator. “The greater likelihood of storms brings an increased risk of a landfall. In short, we urge everyone to be prepared.” The outlook ranges exceed the seasonal average of 11 named storms, six hurricanes and two major hurricanes. Expected factors supporting this outlook are: Upper atmospheric winds conducive for storms. Wind shear, which can tear apart storms, will be weaker since El Nino in the eastern Pacific has dissipated. Strong wind shear helped suppress storm development during the 2009 hurricane season. Warm Atlantic Ocean water. Sea surface temperatures are expected to remain above average where storms often develop and move across the Atlantic. Record warm temperatures – up to four degrees Fahrenheit above average – are now present in this region. High activity era continues. Since 1995, the tropical multi-decadal signal has brought favorable ocean and atmospheric conditions in sync, leading to more active hurricane seasons. Eight of the last 15 seasons rank in the top ten for the most named storms with 2005 in first place with 28 named storms. “The main uncertainty in this outlook is how much above normal the season will be. Whether or not we approach the high end of the predicted ranges depends partly on whether or not La Nina develops this summer,” said Gerry Bell, Ph.D., lead seasonal hurricane forecaster at NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center. “At present we are in a neutral state, but conditions are becoming increasingly favorable for La Nina to develop.” Visit www.noaa.gov/ ###

El Nino's Last Stand 2010
A2AD Newswire - New York NY - Wed 08 Sep 2010
A2AD Newswire, Wed 08 Sep 2010. El Nino's Last Stand 2010. El Nino 2009-2010 just keeps hanging in there. Recent sea-level height data from the NASA/European Ocean Surface Topography Mission/Jason-2 oceanography satellite show that a large-scale, sustained weakening of trade winds in the western and central equatorial Pacific during late-January through February has triggered yet another strong, eastward-moving wave of warm water, known as a Kelvin wave. Now in the central and eastern equatorial Pacific, this warm wave appears as the large area of higher-than-normal sea surface heights (warmer-than-normal sea surface temperatures) between 150 degrees west and 100 degrees west longitude. A series of similar, weaker events that began in June 2009 initially triggered and has sustained the present El Nino condition. JPL oceanographer Bill Patzert says it's too soon to know for sure, but he would not be surprised if this latest and largest Kelvin wave is the 'last hurrah' for this long-lasting El Nino. "Since June 2009, this El Nino has waxed and waned, impacting many global weather events. I and many scientists expect the current El Nino to leave the stage sometime soon. What comes next is not yet clear, but a return to El Nino's dry sibling, La Ni–a, is certainly a possibility, though by no means a certainty. We'll be monitoring conditions closely over the coming weeks and months". El Nino, a climate phenomenon with a significant influence on global weather, ocean conditions and marine fisheries. El Nino, the periodic warming of central and eastern tropical Pacific waters, occurs on average every two to five years and typically lasts about 12 months. El Nino's impacts depend on a variety of factors, such as intensity and extent of ocean warming, and the time of year. Contrary to popular belief, not all effects are negative. On the positive side, El Nino can help to suppress Atlantic hurricane activity. In the United States, it typically brings beneficial winter precipitation to the arid Southwest, less wintry weather across the North, and a reduced risk of Florida wildfires. El Nino’s negative impacts have included damaging winter storms in California and increased storminess across the southern United States. Some past El Ninos also have produced severe flooding and mudslides in Central and South America, and drought in Indonesia. An El Nino event may significantly diminish ocean productivity off the west coast by limiting weather patterns that cause upwelling, or nutrient circulation in the ocean. These nutrients are the foundation of a vibrant marine food web and could negatively impact food sources for several types of birds, fish and marine mammals. Visit www.noaa.gov/ ###

Full Moon Names And Their Meanings
A2AD Newswire - New York NY - Wed 08 Sep 2010
Full Moon Names and Their Meanings Full Moon names date back to Native Americans, of what is now the northern and eastern United States. The tribes kept track of the seasons by giving distinctive names to each recurring full Moon. Their names were applied to the entire month in which each occurred. There was some variation in the Moon names, but in general, the same ones were current throughout the Algonquin tribes from New England to Lake Superior. European settlers followed that custom and created some of their own names. Since the lunar month is only 29 days long on the average, the full Moon dates shift from year to year. Here is the Farmers Almanac's list of the full Moon names. • Full Wolf Moon - January Amid the cold and deep snows of midwinter, the wolf packs howled hungrily outside Indian villages. Thus, the name for January's full Moon. Sometimes it was also referred to as the Old Moon, or the Moon After Yule. Some called it the Full Snow Moon, but most tribes applied that name to the next Moon. • Full Snow Moon - February Since the heaviest snow usually falls during this month, native tribes of the north and east most often called February's full Moon the Full Snow Moon. Some tribes also referred to this Moon as the Full Hunger Moon, since harsh weather conditions in their areas made hunting very difficult. • Full Worm Moon - March As the temperature begins to warm and the ground begins to thaw, earthworm casts appear, heralding the return of the robins. The more northern tribes knew this Moon as the Full Crow Moon, when the cawing of crows signaled the end of winter; or the Full Crust Moon, because the snow cover becomes crusted from thawing by day and freezing at night. The Full Sap Moon, marking the time of tapping maple trees, is another variation. To the settlers, it was also known as the Lenten Moon, and was considered to be the last full Moon of winter. • Full Pink Moon - April This name came from the herb moss pink, or wild ground phlox, which is one of the earliest widespread flowers of the spring. Other names for this month's celestial body include the Full Sprouting Grass Moon, the Egg Moon, and among coastal tribes the Full Fish Moon, because this was the time that the shad swam upstream to spawn. • Full Flower Moon - May In most areas, flowers are abundant everywhere during this time. Thus, the name of this Moon. Other names include the Full Corn Planting Moon, or the Milk Moon. • Full Strawberry Moon - June This name was universal to every Algonquin tribe. However, in Europe they called it the Rose Moon. Also because the relatively short season for harvesting strawberries comes each year during the month of June . . . so the full Moon that occurs during that month was christened for the strawberry! • The Full Buck Moon - July July is normally the month when the new antlers of buck deer push out of their foreheads in coatings of velvety fur. It was also often called the Full Thunder Moon, for the reason that thunderstorms are most frequent during this time. Another name for this month's Moon was the Full Hay Moon. • Full Sturgeon Moon - August The fishing tribes are given credit for the naming of this Moon, since sturgeon, a large fish of the Great Lakes and other major bodies of water, were most readily caught during this month. A few tribes knew it as the Full Red Moon because, as the Moon rises, it appears reddish through any sultry haze. It was also called the Green Corn Moon or Grain Moon. • Full Corn Moon - September This full moon's name is attributed to Native Americans because it marked when corn was supposed to be harvested. Most often, the September full moon is actually the Harvest Moon. • Full Harvest Moon - October This is the full Moon that occurs closest to the autumn equinox. In two years out of three, the Harvest Moon comes in September, but in some years it occurs in October. At the peak of harvest, farmers can work late into the night by the light of this Moon. Usually the full Moon rises an average of 50 minutes later each night, but for the few nights around the Harvest Moon, the Moon seems to rise at nearly the same time each night: just 25 to 30 minutes later across the U.S., and only 10 to 20 minutes later for much of Canada and Europe. Corn, pumpkins, squash, beans, and wild rice the chief Indian staples are now ready for gathering. • Full Beaver Moon - November This was the time to set beaver traps before the swamps froze, to ensure a supply of warm winter furs. Another interpretation suggests that the name Full Beaver Moon comes from the fact that the beavers are now actively preparing for winter. It is sometimes also referred to as the Frosty Moon. • The Full Cold Moon; or the Full Long Nights Moon - December During this month the winter cold fastens its grip, and nights are at their longest and darkest. It is also sometimes called the Moon before Yule. The term Long Night Moon is a doubly appropriate name because the midwinter night is indeed long, and because the Moon is above the horizon for a long time. The midwinter full Moon has a high trajectory across the sky because it is opposite a low Sun.

Meteor Showers Schedule
A2AD Newswire - New York NY - Wed 08 Sep 2010
Meteor Showers. The best way to watch for meteors is to find a place with a clear view of the sky and arrange for deck chairs or some other comfortable rest. Warm clothing and a blanket, even in summer, are advisable. Another factor to consider is bright moonlight, which can considerably cut into the potential number of meteors that might be seen. If a gibbous or full Moon is present during your meteor watch, it will generally obliterate all but the very brightest of meteors.

The Leap Second
A2AD Newswire - New York NY - Wed 08 Sep 2010
A2AD Newswire, Wed 08 Sep 2010. The Leap Second. A leap second is a positive or negative one-second adjustment to the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) time scale that keeps it close to mean solar time. A leap second is a second, as measured by an atomic clock, added to or subtracted from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) to make it agree with astronomical time to within 0.9 second. It compensates for slowing in the Earth’s rotation and is added during the end of June or December. The International Earth Rotation and Reference System Service (IERS) observes the Earth's rotation and nearly six months in advance (January and July) a "Bulletin C" message is sent out, which reports whether or not to add a leap second in the end of June and December. IERS schedules a leap second as needed to keep the time difference between atomic clocks and Earth’s rotation to below 0.9 seconds. Currently, no leap second was introduced in UTC on 31 December 2009. http://hpiers.obspm.fr ###

PETA Wants Robot Groundhog To Replace Phil
A2AD Newswire - New York NY - Wed 08 Sep 2010
Mid Winter approaches and people worldwide are preparing celebrations to honor Punxsy Phil. PETA says famed groundhog shouldn't have to deal with lights and crowds replace Punxsutawney Phil with a robot. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is requesting a robotic stand-in for the furry favorite of the beloved Groundhog Day festival known 'round the world. PETA says it’s unfair to keep Phil in captivity and then subject him to huge crowds and bright lights every Feb. 2. We could understand PETA’s fears for Punxsutawney Phil’s well being if Bill Murray was still plotting the furry fellow’s demise, but this is not the case. The animal is “being treated better than the average child in Pennsylvania,” William Deeley, president of the Inner Circle of the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club, said. The groundhog is kept in a climate-controlled environment and is inspected annually by the state Department of Agriculture. Tens of thousands of revelers go to Punxsutawney, Pa., every Groundhog Day, where the mayor of the town brings Phil out of his burrow and “asks” the creature is he can see his shadow. Tradition states that if the groundhog sees his shadow, there will be six more weeks of winter. If he doesn’t, spring will come early. There is no guarantee of an accurate prediction if the groundhog is a robot. - Gobblers Knob Groundhog Day Festivities Webcast.
