In Latin, septem means "seven" and septimus means "seventh"; September was in fact the seventh month of the Roman calendar until 153 BC, when the first month changed from Kalendas Martius (1 March) to Kalendas Januarius (1 January).

Titera's Tidbit: Groundhog Day
This is an annual holiday celebrated on February 2 on which if a groundhog emerges from its burrow and fails to see its shadow because the weather is cloudy, winter will soon end. If it is sunny and the groundhog sees its shadow, he will supposedly retreat into its burrow, and winter will continue for six more weeks. The holiday began as a Pennsylvania German custom in southeastern and central Pennsylvania in the 18th and 19th centuries.
