Groundhog Day 2026 LIVE: Punxsutawney Phil to make prediction | World | News

Groundhog Day, celebrated on February 2, originated from European traditions merging Christian Candlemas with ancient weather lore.

German settlers in Pennsylvania adapted the custom, replacing hedgehogs with groundhogs to predict either an early spring or six more weeks of winter based on the animal’s shadow. The first official Punxsutawney event was in 1886.
