Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson for February 01, 2025

Yeah! Then we’ll still have a chance for more snow days!

What do they look like?…..

We’re going to have 12 more weeks of winter.

If he doesn’t see his shadow, then we’ll only have another month and a half of winter.

I’m ready for more snow!

Keep Calvin away from the Casket of Ancient Winters

But won’t that light create a shadow if one should show up, or is that what he wants?

Groundhogs’ Day is tomorrow, Calvin.

I always wondered where Calvin found an extension cord that long…

He’s a day early, since this strip is from 1995 and Groundhog Day falls on Sunday this year.

If ya wants more snow ya could always goes more up north. Or all the way down south too see.

6 weeks puts us around first day of Spring whether or not there is a shadow.

Punxatawney Phil always sees his shadow due to the TV lights…

Scientific progress controls the weather!

Well, the groundhog better show up fast, cause I think I see your parents coming and boy do they look mad! I wonder why?

He’s 35% accurate so whatever he predicts is most likely the opposite.

Well, I loved the movie

If he sees his shadow, we’ll have six more weeks of winter. If he doesn’t, we’ll only have 42 days of winter.

Not to be confused with ground hog, which is actually sausage.

Not a single extension left in the house. Probably means have the lights, the tv, and some appliances don’t work.

Tomorrow is also Dog the Bounty Hunter’s Birthday, Brah. Brah, Dog be 72 years old, Brah. And doesn’t look a day over 104. Dilly! Dilly!, Brah!

Once again, The Count likes how Calvin thinks. Dilly! Dilly, Calvin! Hobbes, too.

Animal rights advocates are trying to get rid of Groundhog Day.

Perfect “set up”…….must be a looooooooong drop cord!!!!

No, Bill: that’s tomorrow. And I ought to know: it’s my birthday. I always go out and look at the Sun on that day. If it isn’t eclipsed, I figure I’ve got another year to live. (and I’m an astronomy educator, so I always know when it’s safe!) (Yeah, I know: you can’t expect rerun strips to match the date precisely).
