Move Over Groundhog: Raccoon's Time to Shine in Weather Forecasting!

The raccoon challenges the groundhog's role as winter weather forecaster, boasting its urban prowess and street smarts over the burrow-dwelling rodent. While Mr. Groundhog hibernates, the raccoon is busy honing its forecasting skills and navigating the concrete jungle. With its keen intellect and adaptability, the raccoon proposes a modern approach to weather prediction, using discarded items and urban observations instead of shadows. It's time for a weather revolution led by the raccoon!
Groundhog Day is a popular annual event that is held on February 2nd and is based on the belief that if a groundhog (also known as a woodchuck) emerges from its burrow on this day and sees its shadow, winter will last for six more weeks. However, if the groundhog does not see its shadow, spring will arrive early.
The Toronto Star will feature our story and this video in Friday's paper! Happy Raccoon (Groundhog) Day!
