GroundFrog Day celebration

Posted by DANNY GAWLOWSKI


Who needs Punxsutawney Phil when a bullfrog can do the job? At downtown Snohomish's annual GroundFrog Day celebration Saturday, Snohomish Slew, the GroundFrog, predicted there is good weather ahead -- according to human interpreter Juan Carrion, this year's Frog King. View more photos.

The Royal Court makes its way into downtown Snohomish for the big prediction. Juan Carrion and Danielle Inman are the Frog King and Queen, respectively.
