Fun Facts About the Commonwealth of Massachusetts

 

While the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania can boast having the most famous groundhog weather prognosticator, Punxsutawney Phil, Massachusetts has its own groundhog, the Divine Ms. G

In 2014, Mish Michaels, WBZ meteorologist, and students from the Hunnewell School in Wellesley campaigned to have Ms G named as the official state groundhog. Through Ms. G, the children learned about weather, the environment, and state government.
