Groundhog Day 2010 is full of surprise. Previously, many people still confused to ask did the groundhog see his shadow. However, after I surfed on the net for a second, finally I found that Staten Island Chuck answering for this question. Like that reported in NY1.com, there are two different opinions about it.
Firstly, it’s believed that the winter will be over soon because Staten Island Chuck says that Chuck did not see his shadow although in fact, the weather is more cold in the Groundhog Day 2010. It’s not really like the spring is around the corner.

Codswallop, primarily a British English term meaning “nonsense”, is an interjection of uncertain origin.
Popular etymology claims an ancient and vernacular origin for the word citation needed, with cod being interpreted from Germanic word for “bag” and later a Middle English term for the male genitals (as in codpiece). The wallop component can be referred to separately: Merriam-Webster gives it as the Middle English “walopen”, meaning to gallop.
Another popular etymology places the word’s origins in the brewing industry. In 1876, British soft drink maker Hiram Codd designed and patented a bottle designed specifically for fizzy drinks. Though his Codd-neck bottle was a success in the fizzy drink industry, alcohol drinkers disparaged Codd’s invention, often saying it was only good for “wallop” (a slang term for beer in the late-19th century). The term soon became “Codd’s Wallop” and was eventually used for anything of low-quality or rubbish.
