Here are five things to know today, Feb. 2, in Montgomery County:

1. It’s Groundhog Day! Will Punxsutawney Phil, the celebrity groundhog, see his shadow? According to legend, if it’s sunny and he sees his shadow that means six more weeks of winter. If he doesn’t see his shadow, then an early spring is on the way.
