Groundhog Day is a festival on 2nd February in the USA and Canada. It is an exciting day for
a lot of people because they can find out when the winter will end. On this day, people get around the groundhog’s hole and wait for it to come out. When it does, if the sun is bright in the sky, it means the winter will last for six more weeks. But, if the weather is cloudy when it comes out of its hole, the winter will end very soon! There are
famous groundhogs all over the USA and Canada that are a part of Groundhog Day. But the most famous groundhog is Punxsutawney Phil from Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, USA. Wherever people celebrate Groundhog Day, it’s always a fun day! Everyone comes together to hope for the end of winter and the beginning of spring.
