Six more weeks of winter are on the way. 

That’s according to the legendary Punxsutawney Phil, who saw his shadow on Thursday.

The groundhog was summoned from his tree stump at Gobbler's Knob in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, by members of his "inner circle" to determine if he has seen his shadow. The "inner circle" is comprised of local officials, who are responsible for taking care of Phil.

Phil has predicted winter more than 100 times, according to records dating back to 1887. This marks the 137th celebration of Groundhog Day.

New York City’s Staten Island Chuck will also make his prediction Thursday during an event at the Staten Island Zoo.
