Be aware of the basic premise of the holiday. If, on February 2nd, a groundhog emerges its burrow and sees its shadow because it is sunny, then he will be scared and run back underground; winter will continue for another 6 weeks. But if it is cloudy and he cannot see his shadow, he will stay above ground and spring will come!
