While several famous groundhogs have predicted an early spring, Nova Scotia’s Lucy the Lobster says Canada can expect six more weeks of winter.

Groundhog Day folklore says that if a groundhog comes out of its burrow on Feb. 2 and sees its shadow, it forecasts six more weeks of winter. If it does not see its shadow, expect an early spring.
