Groundhog Day

Groundhog Day is a popular tradition celebrated on February 2nd in the United States and Canada, centered around the folklore that if a groundhog emerging from its burrow sees its shadow due to clear weather, it will retreat into its den, signifying six more weeks of winter. If it does not see its shadow because of cloudiness, spring will arrive early. The most famous observation takes place in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, with Punxsutawney Phil, the groundhog, drawing thousands of spectators annually for this whimsical prediction.
