Cette traduction est basée sur un article du Devoir daté du 3 février 1976 qui décrivait cette tempête: "Entre-temps diverses légendes s'imposaient à la mémoire. Celle notamment de la marmotte qui sort de son trou le 2 février et qui, avisant son ombre, devient le signe que le printemps est tout proche".
