Groundhog Day is an American and Canadian tradition celebrated on February 2nd.
According to folklore, if it is cloudy when a groundhog emerges from its burrow on this day, the spring season will come early; if it is sunny, the groundhog will, supposedly, see its shadow and retreat back into its den. This means that winter weather will persist for six more weeks.

Modern customs of the holiday involve celebrations where early morning festivals are held to watch the groundhog emerging from its burrow.
