On Wednesday morning at 7:41 AM in Marion Ohio, Buckeye Chuck, Ohio’s Official Weather Forecasting Groundhog emerged from his burrow at WMRN Radio to a cloudy sky, which folklore says means, “Spring Is Just Around the Corner!”
Buckeye Chuck was proclaimed “Ohio’s Official Weather Predicting Groundhog” in 1979 by the Ohio Legislature and since then AM-1490 WMRN Radio has held an annual celebration for Buckeye Chuck’s historic announcement. Buckeye Chuck has correctly predicted the second half of Ohio’s weather about 70% of the time.
