"2024 Groundhog Predictions: Early Spring or Extended Winter?"
TL;DR Summary
Punxsutawney Phil, the famous groundhog, did not see his shadow, indicating an early spring. Despite his accuracy being around 40% over the past century, loyal fans still gather annually at Gobbler’s Knob for his prediction. The tradition dates back to 1887 and has its origins in European folklore. Other animals, such as a hedgehog in Oregon and an armadillo in Texas, also made weather predictions this year.
