Did the groundhog see his shadow this morning?

The accuracy of Groundhog Day predictions relies on folklore rather than scientific evidence. Groundhog Day is a traditional holiday celebrated in the United States and Canada, where a groundhog's behavior is used to predict the arrival of spring. According to folklore, if the groundhog sees its shadow, winter will persist for six more weeks, while if it doesn't, spring will arrive early. However, there is no scientific basis supporting the predictive abilities of groundhogs or other animals in forecasting weather patterns.
