I don't put alot of stock into that prediction.....it's Winter and will be winter for 6 more weeks because it's February.
However, it's a fun tradition that keeps the public's attention on the little rascal .

I'm sure the ground hog is thinking the same thing "Why do those filthy humans rely on me to predict spring"?

You are wrong about ground hogs.
I have known one for many years and I never saw the critter go for more than a day without washing and if the critter says it is going to rain ,you better get your umbrella ready.

Folk lore and it actually has some common sense roots...
by the way, ground hogs are not filthy, that was mean.

I don't because Spring starts on March 20th (or so) but it is fun to watch all those people down at Gobbler's Knob every year!!!
