Staten Island Chuck (a.k.a Charles G. Hogg) is the borough’s resident groundhog. He lives at the Staten Island Zoo in West Brighton. And he has an excellent record when it comes to predicting whether we’ll experience an early spring or six more weeks of dark, blustery winter.

The day eventually evolved into what we know it today. In 1886, Groundhog Day was acknowledged for the first time in Punxsutawney by a local newspaper, Weathers Wags, according to the club. In 1887, the first official pilgrimage to see Phil on Gobbler’s Knob while he made his predictions were made.

There is only one Punxsutawney Phil, but many challengers to his throne. How accurate are they? These weather experts decided to find out.

If the weather-predicting groundhog sees his shadow, it allegedly means six more weeks of winter. If he doesn’t, it means an early spring. However, Punxsutawney Phil’s winter prognoses have only been right about 39% of the time.

Here's what the weather forecast shows for Punxsutawney Phil's prediction for Groundhog Day on Sunday morning.

Groundhogs emerge from their burrows on Sunday to tell us if we can expect an early spring. Will they see their shadows? Here's what to know.

But if you’d rather not brave the chilly February pre-dawn weather this weekend, and still want to watch the reveal live, we have some options for you.

All eyes will be on the “Weather Capital of the World” this Sunday for Phil's big moment, but it appears the forecast may already be hinting at a spring prediction.

So, how accurate is Punxsutawney Phil? Records show that Phil is not quite the prognosticator of prognosticators that legends purport him to be.
