From Global News.

Sunday marked Groundhog Day and Nova Scotia’s beloved celebrity groundhog, Shubenacadie Sam, is predicting a long winter ahead.

Sam came out her enclosure at a wildlife park north of Halifax and stepped out into the -18 C cold.

She spent a few moments breathing the air and looking around at the crowd, before turning around and heading back inside her enclosure.

“Not surprisingly, it seems Sam wants to get back inside,” Andrew Boyne, the director of the wildlife division at the Department of Natural Resources, told the crowd.

Boyne said Sam saw her shadow, predicting six more weeks of cold, wintry weather.
