groundhog

Negli Stati Uniti, il 2 febbraio è chiamato Groundhog Day. È in tale data che si può prevedere se la primavera sarà precoce o tardiva osservando il comportamento del groundhog (la marmotta) quando esce dalla tana nella quale ha trascorso l'inverno. Se vede la sua ombra, la marmotta si spaventa e ritorna nella tana, il che sta a significare che l'inverno durerà ancora sei settimane. Ma se il cielo è coperto e non scorge la sua ombra, rimane fuori perché la primavera è in arrivo.
