Groundhog in US Predicts Early Spring
On February 2nd, the United States witnessed the annual Groundhog Day tradition, with groundhogs across the country playing the role of "weather forecasters". The most famous of them all, Punxsutawney Phil in Pennsylvania, emerged from its burrow in the morning. As the sunlight hit, Phil saw its shadow, indicating that winter would persist for another six weeks according to the long - standing legend.
