Answer: This year, February 2nd, 2008, for sure. How long ago in times past, did those simultaneous events occur, I'm not so sure.
Winter it is. for another 6 weeks, according to a groundhog, and crawfish. Take that, NOAA Weather forecasters. By the way, Phil's been doing this for 122 years (and, he doesn't look his age.)
