Groundhog Punxsutawney Philp has predicted six more weeks of winter in the United States as she emerged from her burrow on Feb. 2, 2022 to perform her Groundhog Day duties in Pennsylvania.Thousands of people gathered at Gobbler’s Knob, Pennsylvania, as members of Punxsutawney Phil’s “inner circle” called him from his tree stump at dawn to see if he had seen his shadow. After Phil’s prediction was announced, the crowd repeatedly shouted “six more weeks!” According to tradition, spring would come early if the groundhog did not see its shadow. Last year, the event was held virtually due to the coronavirus pandemic, which deprived the community, which is located about 65 miles (105 kilometers) northeast of Pittsburgh, of the boost that tourists provide.
