Malverne Mel Makes His 2021 Groundhog Day Prediction
The meteorological rodent made his prediction at a small, socially-distanced ceremony this year. You can watch it here.
MALVERNE, NY — Malverne Mel, Nassau County's meteorological groundhog, has made his prediction for the end of the winter of 2021. It was the 26th year Malverne has held its Groundhog Day celebration.
According to Mel, we're going to have an early spring this year. The groundhog, who was in a rather unpleasant mood despite it being his big day, told Malverne Mayor Keith Corbett his prediction.
"I, Mayor Keith Corbett, was witness to Malverne Mel, who prognosticated to me that upon looking for his shadow, it could not be seen," Corbett proclaimed. "So I'm pleased to announce to all of Malverne it will be an early spring."
