Today, Punxsutawney Phil poked his head out to look for his shadow and make his yearly Groundhog Day prediction.
The forecast: Phil did in fact see his shadow – which means 6 more weeks of winter weather.
If he hadn’t seen his shadow, we’d be in for an early spring. The good news is we’re half-way through winter. And while spring may be another 6 weeks away, it’s not too late (or too early) to start weatherizing your home to save some money.
Contact your state’s weatherization program to find out if you’re eligible for assistance and how to apply.
While you’re at it, this could also be a good time to get started on some spring cleaning. Who knows, you might find a few things you could sell in a yard sale or on sites like Craigslist for some extra cash.
Check out The Beehive for more information about weatherizing and some great ways to save.
