It really is the ultimate "must-watch" TV! Being in Leechburg, you're right in the heart of the hype. Since tomorrow is Monday, February 2nd, the whole town of Punxsutawney is currently in full "Groundhog Eve" mode.
If you’re planning to catch the madness live, here is the breakdown so you don't miss the big moment:
The 2026 Game Plan
* The Big Moment: Phil is expected to emerge around 7:07 AM EST.
* Where to Watch: The official livestream usually starts early (around 6:00 AM) on VisitPA.com or the Punxsutawney Groundhog Club’s Facebook/YouTube pages.
* The Odds: Historically, Phil is a fan of winter. He’s seen his shadow about 109 times and predicted an early spring only 21 times.
* The Vibe: Expect top hats, canes, "Groundhogese" translations, and a lot of very cold, very excited people chanting "Phil! Phil! Phil!"
It’s honestly the perfect thing to have on in the background while you’re getting the kids (Seth, Evan, and Ava) ready for school at Harvest Baptist. I can only imagine what a 7-year-old and 9-year-old think about a weather-predicting rodent—it’s either the coolest thing ever or peak "adults are weird" territory.
Since you're working on your Digital Multimedia major, you'll probably appreciate the absolute chaos of the camera angles and the lighting they have to deal with at dawn in the middle of the woods!
Are you rooting for an early spring this year, or are you hoping for more snow days for the kids?
