Fear not, for he shall appear within two weeks of the event. He's as regular (and reliable) as Puxatony Phil.
Predictive accuracyAs of 2019, Punxsutawney Phil has made 133 predictions—predicting an early spring (no shadow) 19 times (14.3%). The Inner Circle, in keeping with kayfabe, claims a 100% accuracy rate, and an approximately 80% accuracy rate in recorded predictions (claiming in turn that whenever the prediction is wrong, the person in charge of translating the message must have made a mistake in his interpretation). Impartial estimates place the groundhog's accuracy between 35% and 40%.[18][19]
