BEE CAVE, Texas — Texans can expect an early spring this year — if Bee Cave Bob’s prediction is right.
- 10th annual Armadillo Day Festival
- Did not see shadow
- Agrees with Punxsutawney Phil
On Saturday, people gathered for the 10th annual Armadillo Day Festival. The event takes place in Bee Cave on February 2 each year. It is where armadillo Bee Cave Bob predicts whether Texas will have an early spring or a long winter.
Bee Cave Bob stepped out of his cave and did not see his shadow. According to tradition, that means spring is coming to Texas soon.
This year, Bee Cave Bob’s forecast aligns with Pennsylvania’s Punxsutawney Phil who also stepped out and did not see his shadow on Saturday.
