Goodbye Milltown Mel!

The beloved weather predicting groundhog Milltown Mel has passed away. He will not be telling us whether or not to expect more weeks of winter this year. The average lifespan of a groundhog is about three years, so it wasn’t a huge shock since Mel has been doing it for 6 years, but it’s a shame that it happened right before his big day! We are on our own this year. Ceremony officials hope to find a new groundhog next year. RIP Mel! You will be missed buddy.
