Punxsutawney Phil will make his annual prediction on February 2nd; if he sees his shadow, expect six more weeks of winter.
Livestreams of the event will be available via Visit PA &ref=yanuki.com, PAcast &ref=yanuki.com, and PCN Select &ref=yanuki.com, starting early Monday morning.
New Jersey also features its own animal predictors: groundhogs Lady Edwina of Essex County and Stonewall Jackson of Sussex County.
This year, an Eastern Box Turtle named Tomothy will make his first-ever Groundhog Day prediction at the Edelman Fossil Park & Museum at Rowan University.
Lady Edwina will also predict the Super Bowl winner during her Groundhog Day event.
