Today is the 130th anniversary of Groundhog Day, a day where in Pennsylvania tradition we find out if Winter is extended or if Spring will arrive early by monitoring the activity of a cute Groundhog named Punxsutawney Phil.
If youre the type of person to get excited about whether to ditch your sweaters and winter coat early, you can watch the live stream here, which starts at 6 AM Eastern/ 3AM Western/ 11AM GMT.
The tradition, dating back to the 1800s, originated from a celebration of Candlemas and a rather fetching poetic tradition to find out if itd be colder for longer.
Groundhog Day was brought into the publics wider awareness with the release of the 1993 film of the same name starring Bill Murray.
