Per Wikipedia...Groundhog Day is a holiday celebrated in United States and Canada on February 2.
In weather lore, if a groundhog, also known as a woodchuck, or marmot emerges from its burrow on this day and fails to see its shadow because the weather is cloudy, winter will soon end. If on the other hand, it is sunny and the groundhog sees its shadow, the groundhog will supposedly retreat into its burrow, and winter will continue for 6 more weeks.
Please Mr. Groundhog don't see your shadow, I don't know how much more of this cold weather I can take...
I'm ready to see my crocus blooming and know that spring in on its way!
