Buckeye Chuck is back

• He'll make his first prognostication Friday morning with radio station WMRN-AM in Marion, reviving a decades-old tradition.

Flashback: Last Groundhog Day, the station subbed a stuffed groundhog for the real thing at the last minute due to a PETA controversy.

Catch up quick: The new Chuck's actual name is Murray, named after "Groundhog Day" actor Bill Murray.

• He doesn't have the skills needed to survive in the wild because a family found him as an injured orphan and raised him.
• An animal rehabilitator brought Murray to the museum last summer. When he isn't predicting the weather, he participates in educational programs.
