Team Groundhog is an Internet project
sponsored by
Lanise Jacoby that tracks
weather around the USA.
The project kicks off on Groundhog Day,
February 2nd,
with the guiding question being "Is the
groundhog a good predictor of weather?".
There are ten classes participating in Team
Groundhog 2007 and each class will vote
on names for their groundhogs, then check
to see if their shadows are seen. Over the
next six weeks, they will collect daily
temperature data, average it and share it weekly
with the team. In the seventh and final
week of the project, classes will vote as to
whether they feel the groundhog was a good
predictor of weather.
