2023 Groundhog Day |

PUNXSUTAWNEY, Pa. —
Punxsutawney Phil has spoken: Six more weeks of winter await us.
"I had a feeling we got off a little easy so far this year, it is February," said Pam Hashin, of Schuylkill County. "(But) it is unacceptable to not believe Phil."
"I usually am a big fan of the six more weeks. I like the winter in January, February, but this year in Ohio, it's been mostly rain and mud so I was kind of hoping for the early spring," said Ryan Teti, a native of Coshocton County, Ohio. "I figured if you're not going to give us the snow, then give us more autumn or give us back the summer. I'm tired of the rain and mud."
The beloved groundhog took his position for the 137th time at Gobbler's Knob Thursday morning

| Pennsylvania's earliest settlers were Germans and they found groundhogs to in profusion in many parts of the state. They determined that the groundhog, resembling the European hedgehog, was a most intelligent and sensible animal and therefore decided that if the sun did appear on February 2nd, so wise an animal as the groundhog would see its shadow and hurry back into its underground home for another six weeks of winter. by Marilyn Ferguson 2004
