Prediction of more snow comes true tonight

Did you hear? We're in for six more weeks of winter.

Punxsutawney Phil "saw" his shadow and "tweeted" about it shortly after. The Inner Circle annually announces Phil's forecast at dawn on Gobbler's Knob, about 65 miles northeast of Pittsburgh.

And you can expect his results to be immediate. According to the National Weather Service, the area will get snow accumulation of 1 to 3 inches starting after 7 p.m. There's a 40 percent chance of another half-inch of snow before 10 a.m. Wednesday.

Then you can expect rain and snow on Friday. With a temperature of 38 degrees, the chance of precipitation is 30 percent. Snow is more likely on Saturday when the temperature prediction is 35.
