Feb. 2: Groundhog Day

[快乐的天蝎]

Groundhog Day is a traditional festival celebrated in the United States and Canada on February 2. It is a cross-quarter day, midway between the Winter Solstice and the Vernal Equinox.

In traditional weather lore, if a groundhog emerges from its burrow on this day and fails to see its shadow because the weather is cloudy, winter will soon end. If the groundhog sees its shadow because the weather is bright and clear, it will be frightened and run back into its hole, and the winter will continue for six more weeks.

谢谢天蝎的贴图和介绍。今天早上电台广播证实在Halifax 的Groundhog 没看见自己的影子，也没有吓得跑回洞中。故推测今年冬天会很快结束。只是可惜了我的滑雪季票。开始得晚，结束得早。明年真要考虑一下是否还买这捞什子。

If you buy both skiing and golfing passes, you'll be balanced all the time.
