In the city of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, the American groundhog Phil predicts that spring warming will arrive late this year.
I am going back down, there is a shadow up here. Prepare for six more weeks of winter this year.
This is Phil's 139th prediction, and he has been correct only 39% of the Time. The lifespan of a groundhog continues to be extended each year thanks to a magical elixir.
The tradition of predicting the arrival of spring through the behavior of a groundhog originates from Germany, but there a badger served as the weather forecaster. In Pennsylvania, there are no badgers, so the role was taken over by Punxsutawney Phil.
In Ukraine, there is also a groundhog - Tymko III. His prediction for next year anticipates a delay in the arrival of spring, but notes that there will be minor frosts and snowfalls.
