Unfortunately, on this blustery winter morning, he didn't find it. The groundhog - arguably the most famous member of his species and the most recognizable of all the country's animal prognosticators - did what he has done for the last 137 years: search for a sign of spring in front of a group of top hat-wearing handlers and adoring fans at Gobbler's Knob in Pennsylvania. On Thursday morning, thousands of early risers either tuned in or bundled up to watch Punxsutawney Phil emerge from a tree stump and predict the weather.
