MARION, Ohio — It's Groundhog Day 2024! While Punxsutawney Phil predicted an early spring after not seeing his shadow early Friday morning at Gobbler's Knob in Pennsylvania, what is Ohio's own Buckeye Chuck predicting?
It was declared at 7:41 a.m. Friday that Buckeye Chuck did NOT see his shadow either, meaning he, too, is predicting an early spring.
Chants of "Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!" filled the small crowd in Marion after the prediction was declared.
So there you have it... Both Punxsutawney Phil and Buckeye Chuck are both calling for an early spring.
Buckeye Chuck's Groundhog Day prediction was streamed live on Facebook, which you can watch in full below:
Before Buckeye Chuck made his prognostication Friday morning, 3News' Kierra Cotton shared a story about how the furry forecaster has recently found a new home at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History.
