Groundhog Day / Jour de la marmotte

Groundhog Day / Jour de la marmotte

Le jour de la marmotte (Groundhog Day en anglais) est un événement célébré en Amérique du Nord le jour de la Chandeleur, soit le 2 février. Selon la tradition, ce jour-là, on doit observer l'entrée du terrier d'une marmotte. Si elle émerge et ne voit pas son ombre parce que le temps est nuageux, l'hiver finira bientôt. Par contre, si elle voit son ombre parce que le temps est lumineux et clair, elle sera effrayée et se réfugiera de nouveau dans son trou, et l'hiver continuera pendant six semaines supplémentaires.

Groundhog Day is a holiday celebrated on February 2 in the United States and Canada. According to folklore, if it is cloudy when a groundhog emerges from its burrow on this day then spring will come early. If it is sunny, the groundhog will supposedly see its shadow and retreat back into its burrow, and the winter weather will continue for six more weeks
