A few years ago I worked at Lakehead University when I helped a researcher write a news release about his study into if groundhog predictions were reliable to tell us when spring would arrive.
The other day I reached out to that same professor, Michael Rennie, for some fresh quotes, which I used in the story that ran today.
In particular, I wanted to know why cities and towns still hold these silly ceremonies if the predictions are not accurate. He gave a good answer.
