"Wild Bill" Murphy (patreon?)

Howdy, folks! Today is a perfectly ordinary Groundhog Day here at GAPP HQ. The temperature is a crisp 26 degrees Fahrenheit with prevailing winds out of the southwest, and it’s looking like the blizzard on the horizon is going to miss us entirely. Of course, if Punxsutawney Philip sees his shadow, we might be in for a frosty couple of weeks, so stock up on milk and toilet paper and make sure the kiddos have their warmest sweaters on! Now let’s turn it over to Bill at the news desk with your evening pencil puzzle update.

Today’s GAPP marks the return of Gokigen Naname aka Slant! A gok-again, if you will

Draw a diagonal line in each cell that connects the opposite corners of that cell. Diagonal lines cannot form closed loops within the puzzle. Numbered clues show how many lines are extending from that circle. Note that EVERY cell must have a diagonal line through it.
