The story was also based on this Scottish couplet: If Candlemas Day is bright and clear, There'll be two winters in the year. Candlemas Day is celebrated on February 2nd. It was determined that if any animal came out of its underground hibernation on that day, and the sun was out, there would be six more weeks of winter. Thus was born the tradition of the "two winters" or the "second winter." What began as a tale from ancient times, became fact in the early 1880's. A group of residents from Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania decided to celebrate Candlemas Day by going to the woods in search of a groundhog.
