Groundhog day Shadow or no shadow? Punxsutawney Phil, the world's most famous weather-predicting groundhog, will pop out of the ground Saturday to predict if spring will come early or another six weeks of winter are in store. If Phil sees his shadow and scurries back into his hole, tradition dictates six more weeks of winter. Clear skies and no shadow in sight means an early spring. Groundhog day started in Punxsutawney, Pa., in 1841. The groundhog's annual prediction has been accurate about 30 percent of the time.
